I came here on the weekend. There is a clearly marked street number on the big glass doors, you can't miss it. Had to sign in with ID. On the 4th floor with ablution room available.

I was very disappointed to find this place closed due to spring break. If the local brothers and sisters depend on it, it should be available at all times. The place is really difficult to find, too. It was a red door that led to a catholic chapel among other offices, as well. I didn't expect any of this from the description given.

ICNYU hosts a well put together jumma service.

ICNYU is a well-organized MSA, one that is more active than average I'd say. It's open to the public, so Muslims in the area occasionally drop by for the prayers. It's a fairly large MSA, there is a large hall used for Jummah and iftars, which draw well over 100 people. On regular days, you will find about a dozen Muslims more or less for the evening prayers, alhamdulilah. The MSA is active, and holds events and connects with the other MSAs in the city.
