Yes had to park 2long blocks away.
On a Sunday that area is packed .
Hard to even carry a tool bag
Was there under an hour parking was 29 bucks without the tip.
Then it took me an hour to get thru the tunnel on the way home
Traffic coming into the city was heavy coming in as well.
I grew up in the city so I am used to it.

Actually I just did a small test today.
I looked at it the other day and had a feeling it would clean up nice.
I just did a fast test cutting deep and dry.
Was there for a short time no mess and the floor has great potential.
To be exact I used 28 and 40 grit sandpaper then A 70 grit ,120 and 220 genesis(abrasive tech electroplated pads)
I finished with a 400 grit poly plus dip pad.
I could have used vortex for same result but didn't have any in my car

Found this cool looking terrazzo in nyc.
If you look closely it has a smittering(for lack of a better word) of Italian black-yellow sienna, verde, rosso levanto chips in mostly china white aggregate.
The pour is wall to wall-no divider strips-very slight cracks-
It was buried under ceramic tiles for as long as anyone can tell-
The pock marks, chips and holes are new-created when the contractors removed the tile.
Until the architect stopped in-
The matrix is just Portland-no color.
I think this floor is quite old-in person it looks way better than the picture.
I think this floor was poured 1920 or earlier.
Would anyone know?
After the mortar was removed that was was left
The patch you see is all with sandpaper and genesis pads used dry.
The first cut was 28 grit sandpaper up to 220 genesis and a 400 DIP(the dip was used wet)
