It's one thing to know that the United for Peace and Justice August 29th march route, in the words of UFP&J, begins at "14th Street and 23rd Street, stretching from Sixth to Eighth Avenues. The march will kick off at noon from 23rd Street and head up Seventh Avenue past Madison Square Garden. It will then turn west on 34th Street and head over to West Street, also known as the West Side Highway. We will proceed south on West Street to the rally site, which will stretch north from Chambers Street".

But its another thing to actually see the route on a map. What a damn shame, and what a terrible route. Granted, its not the Boston Free Speech Pit, but more than half the march takes place on 12th Avenue, aka, the West Street, aka the West Side Highway. Residents of Jersey City, NJ will have the best of view of both the march and the rally.
