italian ledges

third avenue

Here you will find a little over a foot high marble ledge running alongside a three stair with no end. Parallel to it, is another ledge of the same height running along the same set of steps, only it's about three-and-a-half feet in length, with a slick top making bluntslides, lipslides, etc. possible. This ledge is apart of a large marble platform which extends towards the end of the block. It is about three-and-a-half feet wide, sixty feet long and starts out at only a foot-and-a-half and height and gets to be a foot higher towards its end. It can be skated as a ledge, manual pad or just a platform off of which you can set up garbage cans, barriers, etc.

49th and 3rd Avenue. Take the 4, 5, 6 or 7 to 42nd Street-Grand Central, skate north on Lexington for seven blocks and make a right on 49th Street. It is at the end of the block.

This is typically a night spot, but like many spots in the area, it is very sporadic in regards to whether or not you're going to get kicked out. The security camera will probably see you immediately, but it is all dependent upon how lazy the guard is to come out.
