Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #227 Share Posted March 4, 2022 The building with the point on the top is the old World Trade Center. Next to Hilton Riverside. It’s now a four seasons. It’s the reason the riverfront streetcar was shutdown in that area pre-covid. I know Sean Payton, Mickey Loomis, Drew Brees, and Ellen Degeneres are among the people who own residences there. I think they’re in the 2-12 mil range. And it’s not the primary residence of any of those folks. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #229 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Haha. It’s wall to wall people up there. You couldn’t get out of the balcony area. Everyone is in their groups and oblivious to everyone else so “excuse me” wasn’t working. There was an open seat at the end of a table so I tried Squeeze between that at a standing group. The guy at the end took issue with me pushing through him. I told him look down the line. You’re blocking the whole fudging thing. Except I didn’t say fudging. He seemed to understand at that point. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #233 Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) Everyone loves the saxophone. They all start clapping when he starts playing. I used to play the saxophone. Probably still could. I remember the notes. I remember how to finger and tongue them. Edited March 4, 2022 by Saint Greg 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #236 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I decided to try to get something to eat. There’s a pizza place a few blocks away that’s open until midnight. But it’s in the opposite direction of my hotel. I decided to go anyway. Should’ve called ahead and ordered. It’s a 15-20min wait they say. I ordered a small meat lovers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #241 Share Posted March 4, 2022 (edited) Nobody messed with the thermostat. So either they aren’t in there or they’re just as cold blooded as I am. or they don’t know the thermostat in the room doesn’t work. “I have it all the way on 90 and it’s still 60 in here!” Edited March 4, 2022 by Saint Greg 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #242 Share Posted March 4, 2022 As far as security goes, I was told if I came in after midnight I would have to enter a code into the door. I came back at 11:48 and still had to enter the code. It worked. The front desk girl met me in the hallway to make sure I was legit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #243 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Pizza didn’t take 15-20 mins because I ordered at 11:27 was back at 11:48 and it was a 10min walk so probably 10 mins for the pizza. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted March 4, 2022 Author #250 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Once in the FQ I had a room that had a loft bedroom. I went down steps like these in my socks and busted it. Never again. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
