KLGA has had more than its share of air carrier accidents over the years.
I flew in and out of there more times than I care to remember. Mostly on the 727 but later in my carrier quite a few times on the L-1011.
Day VFR, dry conditions, it was a "piece of cake" for those who knew the airport.
I had many other days (nights) than that. I could write a book on "Le Garbage Pit."
My only close call was on ILS Rwy 4 in a driving rain (not TRW) when the front passed as we were in the flare. The tower didn't say crap. I really got on the T/Rs and brakes and missed going off the pier into the water by perhaps 500 feet.
Then, there was the night the 13 ILS failed over and over.
Garbage Pit!!!!
