The first time, I got a quizzical look and a "Huh?"
The second person finally asked, "You went to school at a subway station?"
My turn to go "Huh?"
I then learned that "Bowling Green" is indeed a station on the #4 and #5 lines on the NYC Subway system, way downtown in the Financial District. I'm including a pic of the Bowling Green "head house," which is the rare, above-ground part of a station that contains escalators, elevators, and ticket agents. (Thanks again, Wikipedia.)

This little beauty is a New York City-designated landmark and is on the National Register of Historic Places. And I still haven't been there yet.
