Good grid, maybe include ""add ton" ?
Other than that nice mix of New York places, had me going for a bit.
10s all round.
Thanks for posting.

This was a fun grid. However, your description of the New York Areas is inaccurate. Queens is one of the five Boroughs of New York City, therefore not a suburb, though to be fair, people frequently argue about that. But officially, it's not a suburb, but a part of New York City. The UES and Harlem are actually on the island of Manhattan, which means they are definitely not suburbs, but neigbourhoods in the city. Long Island is definitely a suburb. Great red herring with the drink Manhattan, though.

Nothing for 'ton'? How could the answer be more direct than that?

bit inconsistent, when three out of the four in a group are the start of a name and the fourth is the whole name.

Oh, and you could be a bit more generous with your allowed answers, 'ton' on its own doesn't work, NY neither.

good grid but please allow "areas of NY" and "-ton places"
