Plans

When I saw that both the Saturday and Sunday geohash locations this weekend were in the Bronx, and were furthermore close both to each other and also to stations on the Six Train, I determined to get both of them in one shot.

The Sunday geohash looks iffy to access; inside a gated parking lot for Affinity Health Plan. There appears to be a diner on the lot, so maybe the gates will be open for that.

I plan to get there on Saturday night just before midnight, so as to already be there to get the Midnight Achievement.

Expedition

I guess I missed the midnight achievement, but I'm getting on the train to go to the new location. -- Elipongo (talk) @40.8456,-73.8257 00:03, 8 December 2013 (EST)

Off the train and walking the last few blocks -- Elipongo (talk) @40.8396,-73.8426 00:20, 8 December 2013 (EST)

Photos

The locations for both Saturday & Sunday are both close to each other and to the Six Train.
Looks like it'll be clear, but cold and windy during my visit.
For some reason the big building uses the cross street as their address. @40.8372,-73.8409
There's the diner but the gate next to it is locked. There's another gate nearby that is open and has no guard in the Shack so I should be able to get in there. @40.8361,-73.8400
Well there I am!
