The LC campus and McMahon are on W. 60th St and it is currently one way going west to east so yes, enter off Amsterdam. I say “currently” bc it has changed from two way to one way and gone in different directions several times during my S’s four years there! AND we were caught off guard when we came in for his Senior Showcase earlier in the month.

You shouldn’t have any trouble finding something by McMahon to unload the car…worst case scenario, you double park to unload to the sidewalk and leave your D with her stuff while you go park in the first garage you see. Then your D can go right inside to get a cart. Even better…have her grab the cart while you are unloading. And don’t forget to get your parking validated for the Fordham discount. I’m not sure if they validate in McMahon but the Security desk when you walk into Lowenstein does.

Yes, McMahon is apartment style with a full kitchen and there will be limited food options at Fordham so she should bring what she needs to prepare her own meals. It would be really helpful to know who she is living with to see if she could coordinate kitchen items. Otherwise you could pack some dishes, flatware, glasses, pots, a frying pan and utensils and bring home what she doesn’t need. The microwave will be the big thing…it’s a must. But don’t forget that Bed Bath & Beyond is just a block or so away to pick up whatever else is needed.

As for food shopping, Western Beef is nearby and the cheapest. Trader Joe’s is further uptown but worth the trip. And whole foods will eat up her whole food budget!

I know other RH kids have really enjoyed living in Manhattan over the summer and I’m sure your D will have a great time! :)
