I'm trying to run node-gyp configure, but am getting the following errors:
gyp: binding.gyp not found (cwd: /usr/local/bin)
gyp ERR! configure error

I think that I'm in the wrong directory, but I'm not sure. Which directory should I be in to run this?
You are trying to run node-gyp rebuild in current working directory (CWD) /usr/local/bin so the node-gyp can not find binding at /usr/local/bin/binding.gyp.
Navigate your terminal to directory which contain nodejs module and only then run node-gyp rebuild.
cd ~/Projects/your-nodejs-native-module/
node-gyp rebuld
BTW I am not sure from which node version exactly but in modern versions you can just run npm install in this directory and npm will run node-gyp rebuild for you.
cd ~/Projects/your-nodejs-native-module/
npm install
if in doubt first re-install npm install -g node-gyp.
It's best practice to run node-gyp rebuild. Run it from your project's root. Also your binding.gyp should be in the root, pointing to dependencies (somewhere else).
In general there shouldn't be any need to run node-gyp configure manually.
By the look of the things (not 100% sure) /usr/local/bin does not exist in your computer. But it is hard to say from the stack-trace.
I have had this problem with newer versions of node. My best work around has been using something like node version manager (nvm) to revert back to an older version of node and then running npm install again.
