In the downtown area, especially in the theatre district, are some young men who will pull you around on a "rickshaw" contraption. Please make sure you have settled on a price or know how they charge. There have been stories in the paper of people being charged $10 a block and ended up with a horrendous charge when they have reached their destination. I'm not sure what is the actual "normal" fare... but just make sure you know what you are agreeing to pay.
