President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will be in NYC today. Obama will be making his financial reform speech at Cooper Union around noon today; according to WPIX, "The President will arrive in New York around 11am. He will take a helicopter to Lower Manhattan, then motorcade up the FDR Drive to the Houston Street exit then make his way to Cooper Union," which is on 7th between 3rd and 4th Avenues. Plus, the FDR will be frozen between 23rd Street and South Ferry, and expect delays on buses that go through the area between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Oh, and some subway entrances might be closed too!
Biden will be on the West Side, gabbing with the ladies of The View. WPIX says Biden "will fly into LaGuardia around 9:30am. His motorcade will take the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, then the F.D.R. Drive to ABC Studios. Drivers can expect delays on West 66th Street at West End Avenue. Also expect delays or closures on Amsterdam Ave, Grand Central Parkway, and RFK Bridge." And also expect delays on buses in the area.
