Lodging & Transportation Guide

Lodging

TCG has arranged for a number of hotel options for the Fall Forum. Given the fact that November is in the midst of the high season, rooms are in short supply and quite expensive. We urge you to reserve early to avoid disappointment. The negotiated rates listed below are only good through Friday, September 19. The Friday dinner is at Bryant Park Grill (40th Street and 5th Avenue) and the remainder of the Forum will be held at the TimesCenter in Times Square (242 West 41st Street between 7th and 8th Avenues).
