5th Ave and Park Ave run parallel to each other. 5th Ave runs north and south along the east side
of Central Park and Park Ave runs parallel to 5th Ave 2 blocks to the east.

I guess it gets confusing when the only time you've ever navigated the streets of your own home town has been in inside a limousine with darkened windows............

(25,862 posts)I can be driven nuts by New Yorkers who think that just because they have every possible ethnic restaurant in that city, there's no need to go outside the five boroughs, ever.
And while NYC is in many ways a wonderful place, and I'd love to visit it again in my lifetime, it does not have everything. Least of all open spaces.

(23,738 posts)I'm pretty sure he's never driven a car in his life.
on edit: Yes, I've seen the promo pictures of him behind the wheel of vehicles, and I've seen the old picture of his driver's license.
I still doubt he ever drives around NYC.

(32,648 posts)He has a driver wherever he goes, and he probably ignores the route when another person is driving. Most New Yorkers take cabs, buses and subways, but a lot of them walk a surprising amount. My son and daughter-in-law live in lower Manhattan, and they do more walking every day than I do in a month.
Well we all know Chump doesn't walk, but he does own property in New York City. So we should assume that he doesn't drive a car, and hasn't driven in a long time.
