lol stfu scottind, it doesn't work that way. They're trying to run a business i.e. we need your $ to profit so rent and utilities can be paid. I'm sure you know this already. And I'm sure they're paying through their skin for that space too cus its -lol- NYC.
Given your location (the other side of the freakin' US?), I really didn't see the point of your initial question to begin with (unless of course you planned to make a trip out here and was concerned on how you should budget). And doesn't your area already have MBAA already for a decent credit/$ rate?
(me thinks you were trying to throw this in our face [?])
P.S. it's 3/5 for $1 which far more than what I expected of Cen. Hell, we're lucky to even have the damn game sitting in CF esp. considering the why-the-fuck-is-AH-here-over-MB drama (supported by yours truly). I won't be paying $1 for vanilla MBAA however...
