to play tennis in NY on a public tennis court, you need to get a permit from the parks department. it’s something like $100 for the entire summer, but you can play on any public tennis court in the city. google it. Coles, our gym, has tennis courts. NYU also has intramural tennis, singles or doubles, or even mixed doubles. it’s a fun way to meet other NYUers.

you can try pricelining something for a one night hotel. there aren’t that many hotels in that area. the nearest “chain” hotel i know is that there’s a Holiday Inn on Lafayette and Canal Street, which is a fifteen minute walk from campus. someone in your family might have hotel points or frequent flier miles that you can cash for a low-cost hotel stay. i know my aunts and uncles always have a random assortment of hotel points they’ll never use again, and Manhattan has representatives for almost every hotel chain in the US.
