Glad you enjoyed little Italy, you just missed the feast of San Gennaro, always a great street festival, (Mulberry St) down there. Vincent's - best calamari around and Ferraras Bakery, and don't forget Forlini's Restaurant over on Baxter St., all great places. That entire area, can be a lot of fun, parts of the village, etc. lots of places to visit and patronize. Don't forget Juniors over in downtown Brooklyn - fantastic cheesecake.
To the utterly rude and unfounded ignorant comments below, it is abundantly clear, you know nothing of Manhattan and the outer boroughs, simple case of engaging mouth before brain, we all do it at one time or another, looks like yours was now.
I worked there over 15 years, in addition to spending lots of time there prior to a career that brought me there, the traffic can be a real tough thing to deal with as are many other things, but the place presents a formidable challenge for anyone who works there. It can make or break a person in some respects.
For many, it is a place to visit, not live, but I see no reason for anyone to condemn this place based on superficial knowledge.
Tolls, parking are what they are, there are plenty of ways to visit the city, that don't cost much, I used to park in a parking garage daily, was like $16/day, reimbursed, but even today, you have to know the places to go. You could always find places in the village and surrounding areas that were reasonable, I can recall many, $3 guiness, and lunch for under $10, in those days, you head uptown, say in the 50's and the east side, forget it, cheaper to take a cab downtown to eat, used to work on 53rd and Fifth, never ate lunch up there, prices were not much different than 165 miles north where I'm from, been out of there since '04.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
