somebody's Directions to The East River Park Amphitheatre:
"take the F or JMZ trains to Essex / Delancey walk east down Delancey
(towards the bridge), but continue walking to the side of / past /
behind the entrance of the Williamsburg Bridge. keep walking east for a
couple of minutes, towards the East River cross over the FDR using the
pedestrian bridge then walk south (towards the Manhattan Bridge /
Chinatown) using the road in the park that joggers and bikers use, for
about 3 minutes. the amphitheatre will be on your left, in the park, in
front of the East River in total, it's about a 10 minute walk from the
subway station.
