I had a great thrill this weekend when, as I was driving up Broadway on my way to Yankee Stadium, I passed the diner where the Seinfeld gang hangs out. (The address must be in the FAQ, which I don't have handy; I think it's between 100th and 115th somewhere). I'm sure New York resident fans are used to this kind of thing, but I thought it was pretty cool as I am a Bostonian who was just in NYC for the weekend and just came upon the site by chance.
What other Seinfeld sites really exist?

I believe they occasionally show the exterior of McManus's bar at the corner of Seventh ave and 19th Street. I thought I saw it one the show but never got around to rewinding the video tape to make sure.
BTW, I think Tom's is at 111th or 112th street.
Tom's is on 112th street. The building is being renovated now and Columbia is raising the rents on all the businesses on that block. Two have already shut down. Alas, Tom's may be next to leave. Had a great idea, though. Open a bar next to Tom's and call it "Seinfeld's." There's space available.

They could merge it with Rodney Dangerfield's club and it:
DANGER-SEINS! (I'm sorry, I couldn't stop myself.)
There actually is an apartment building with his address (on W.81st St.). However, there is no apartment "5A", only an apartment 5. I really feel sorry for whoever lives there. Kind of like any poor people who might have had the number "867-5309" back in the embarrassing early 80's.
(Uh, that was a Tommy Tutone song. But
Why the Hell were you driving up Broadway in Manhattan to get to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx? Wouldn't the West Side Highway or the FDR have been much faster??
A resident of NYC -- just wondering.
By the way, can you give me directions to Paul Revere's house? :)

I had to drop somebody off at 96th and Broadway. I figured staying on Broadway was fastest. To get to Paul Revere's, just follow the hoofprints.
