Re: 2017 New York Regionals

And, FIRST is here for the teams. But I am preaching to the choir here so I am going to stop. Hopefully stuff just goes better next year and hopefully we get into a second regional without a problem being its the first year we have the chance to do so.
I am by no means an expert on the topic, but couldn't the same thing be said of New York City? A quick google search for "Columbia University athletic facilities" brought me to these two links:

http://perec.columbia.edu/content/photo-tour

Of course a first hand walk-through would be necessary to determine if the layout is suitable, but it seems like there is at least sufficient space for a small event. It reads and looks as though this would be quite accessible by public transportation on the metro.

How many such venues worth exploring exist in NYC?
Have these options been explored in the past, and what was the result?
