I think that if I lived in NYC, we would be playing by a whole new set of rules.  I don't think I would seek permission, I think I would just do what I needed to do.

NYC is so easy. Fax them a form (available online) and they fax you back a permit. No money, no insurance.

For those of you who had been following this thread, last week, I want to report that everything went well while shooting at the MAC.

Go to my page to see the results of that shoot.

Another photographer in the area, however, had to provide an insurance certificate and sign in and out of the facility.
