i recently found a cost effective method of moving traffic from Toronto to
New York.

i am interested in finding peering points in New York City, preferably at
Telehouse (Bowling Green Post Office) or 60 Hudson Street.

i was looking at connecting to NYIIX, however, i find that Telehouse is
sharging $400/month just to jack into their switch.

alternately, i have a client who would be willing to house a switch in their
Telehouse racks for a new peering point.  there might also be the potential
to set up a switch at 60 hudson.

anyone have any directions for me for peering in New York, and/or interest
in setting up a new peering point?

my interests in peering are mostly related to news flow and ftp/http access
to large archives of stuff.
