Events Attended: While on vacation in 2001 (before 9/11), we went through Penn Station, which is located directly underneath MSG numerous times. We also stayed at Hotel Pennsylvania, which is across the street from MSG. My mom's mother and her brothers were with us. We had the Presidential Suite, which was very nice. We were supposed to have two separate rooms but they gave them away before we arrived. I wasn't sad that we got upgraded!
