How do I keep a delivery a surprise in a walk-up building?
+
Give us your own mobile number as the order contact, not the recipient's, and put the apartment number and floor in the address. The typical Guttenberg building is four to six stories with one street door and a bank of buzzers that are frequently hand-labelled and occasionally dead, so the runner needs a way in and a way to reach somebody. If the recipient is out, we would rather call you than ruin it with a phone call to them. Nothing gets left in an open vestibule or on the step — there are no porches on these blocks and nothing left outside stays outside.
Can you deliver to the Galaxy Towers?
+
Yes, and it is the most reliable address in town. The Galaxy Towers at 7000 Boulevard East is three high-rises on the cliff edge with a staffed lobby, so a bouquet is received, logged and held instead of chased up a staircase. Name which of the three towers on the order. The one thing to manage is timing, because a delivery logged at noon can sit downstairs until the resident happens to collect mail. Ask for the resident to be notified, and if you want the reveal at the door rather than in the lobby, a later window is better than an early one.
Where do couples in Guttenberg actually go out?
+
Two directions, and neither is in the borough. South along Boulevard East into Weehawken for the Port Imperial and Lincoln Harbor waterfront, where the restaurants look straight at the skyline and the NY Waterway ferry crosses to midtown in minutes — that is the special-occasion option, and it is also where out-of-town partners book a hotel room. Or west a few blocks to Bergenline Avenue, the North Hudson corridor's long commercial spine, for the Cuban, Dominican, Colombian and Peruvian kitchens. Neither is a delivery destination for a surprise; send the flowers to the apartment in the afternoon and let the evening be the evening.
Can you deliver to a hotel room for a romantic weekend?
+
To the hotel's front desk, yes — never to a room, since runners are not sent upstairs anywhere. Guttenberg itself has no hotel, so the two practical clusters are the Weehawken waterfront a couple of miles south along the Boulevard, and the Meadowlands hotels over in Secaucus, on the same side of the ridge as Castleof Flowers at 151 Front St. Order it hold-for-arrival under the exact name on the reservation, with the check-in date in the notes, and expect it to be handed over at check-in rather than placed in the room ahead of you.
The address I was given says West New York 07093. Will it reach Guttenberg?
+
Yes. Two towns share the 07093 ZIP, the branch is named for the bigger one, and Guttenberg addresses therefore get written as West New York constantly — on mail, on accounts, on the note somebody scribbled down for you. Enter the street exactly as given and do not correct the ZIP. If the address is a numbered street and the building number starts with 68, 69 or 70, you are almost certainly looking at Guttenberg rather than its neighbour, and either way the same shops run the same route through both towns, so nothing about the delivery changes.
