Local tips
- Use the B or C subway lines for local access to the district, but check weekend schedules as the B train often does not run then.
- Walk on the right side of the sidewalk and step into a building alcove or near a lamp post if you need to stop for photos or navigation.
- Expect to tip 18-22% at sit-down restaurants, as gratuity is rarely included in the bill for small groups.
