How to Lock up in NYC

MY Daughter is now in school at FIT so I would like to take the old beat up GT Passage down and have a go at a little city riding as I have an excuse to go. I think I would be ok on a Sunday morning. This would also give me a chance to find on street parking even if it was blocks away from the school.
I was hoping someone might have a picture or describe to me the correct way to lock up so as not to wind up like that poor old 5speed that is locked to the light post with its rear wheel missing on 27th street. From searching the forum I see that I will require Kryptonite? I can get this upstate or is this better purchased in town where the bike shops would understand what I require?

The GT Passage is a 1989 steel frame Hybred with 700c x 38 tires...it is a robust, battle scarred veteran.
