Transportation

Getting around couldn't be easier. 

Subway

Subway stations within two blocks are the E, M, 7, G. 

  • E & M are one stop into midtown Manhattan at Lexington Avenue & 53rd Street. And, both lines take you to Penn Station for the Long Island Railroad and NJ Transit. Go in the other direction, towards Queens, and you can connect to La Guardia and JFK airports, and the Long Island Railroad.
  • 7 is just three stops to Grand Central Terminal and it connects to every subway line in Manhattan as it travels along 42nd Street to Times Square. And, connects to MetroNorth trains to update New York and Connecticut. Go in the other direction, towards Queens, and you can connect to La Guardia airport and CitiField (AKA Shea Stadium).
