47... Kg7 48. Nb7 Kf8 49. Kf3 Kg7 50. Ke3
I realize that the kingside is safe, so my king heads towards the action.

 
50... Kf8 51. Kd2 Ne8
Now I'm guessing black envisions this knight flanking to the kingside.

 
52. Kc3 Kf7 53. Kb4 Kg7 54. Ka5 Kf7 55. Nbd8+
Again, pushing black's king away.

 
55... Kf8 56. b6
Now it is safe to push the pawn. Black is forced to take.

 
56... Nxb6 57. Kxb6 Kg7 58. Bb5
Now to go to work on exchanging bishops.

 
58... Kf8 59. Na7 Bxb5 60. Nxb5 Ke7 61. Ne6 h5 62. Kc6 Kf7 63. Nxd6+
And black resigned. Black's 14...b6 proved to be his undoing. A satisfying win after manhattan has OWNED me for the last couple of years:)
