New to Town

Hey All!

I am working a summer job in Brooklyn and just moved here so i am new to the NYC climbing scene. I am looking for a gym to go to after work, and to start finding the bouldering spots around town. so, i was wondering if you guys had a preference for which gym(s) around town are better? i'd also love to potentially finding some climbing partners! none of the people i know here are climbers, unfortunately. i live in brooklyn, but i have no problem going wherever the good climbing is.
i'm not an overly experienced climber - i've only been doing it for about 6 months, but i was living in las vegas so i was able to learn and climb out at Red Rock Canyon which was amazing. i've never actually climbed in a gym before. i'd love to keep climbing so i can keep improving and well, it's a helluva lot of fun!
thanks for any input and hopefully i'll see some of you out there!
