granted not much, but nice european stuff, especially with Demon, wisper, insnet, nildram, etc.. being there.
but it is nice that a bunch of overseas folk van be met there. but the environment is just not spiffy enough that one would put a critical pop there. but a ds3 over and a router in order to meet folk seems reasonable and prudent.

60 hudson seems to vary widely depending on which floor and which room. some folk's collos would even please a seattleite.
heh
