Hello all,
I will be moving to New York City in August and was wondering how things are
over there for blind people in general? Is public transportation good? How
about big intersections etc? Of course I have been to New York in several
occasions before but only for short periods of time.
Ideally I would like to find an apartment near Juilliard (Lincoln Center
Plaza) as it would be the most convenient option for me, but I don't know if
that will be possible for several reasons. I am trying to figure out how
realistic it would be for me to live far away from Juilliard and go back and
forth? I have a guide dog and have no problems at all dealing with public
transportation, but don't know much about New York and Manhattan in
particular when it comes to these things.
Any comments, tips or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

IC
