How do you get to 26 Federal Plaza in Manhattan from West 72nd Street?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Walk over to the Astor Place station on the 6 train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line). This station is just off St. Marks Place (which is East 8th Street from 3rd to 1st Avenues). The station is on Astor Place, between Lafayette Street and 4th Avenue/Cooper Square.

Take the Downtown 6 from Astor Place to Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall. Depending on which exit you use, you may exit the subway at the corner of Chambers and Centre Streets, at the northeast corner of City Hall Park, OR, you may exit at the next block up, at the corner of Reade and Centre Streets.

Walk 2 blocks west on Chambers Street (across City Hall Park) to Broadway. Or, walk 2 blocks west on Reade Street (in the same direction as traffic) to Broadway. Turn right, and walk 3 or 4 blocks north on Broadway to Worth Street. The address 26 Federal Plaza is at the southeast corner of Worth Street and Broadway.

What subway do you take from Penn Station to get to Columbia Presbyterian Hospital?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cornell Medical Center is on York Avenue, from 60th to 70th Street.

1) Take the Uptown 1-2-3 (the red line) or the Uptown A-C-E (the blue line) one stop, from 34th Street (Penn Station) to 42nd Street (Times Square). All six of these trains (the 1, the 2, and the 3, and the A, the C and the E) stop at 42nd Street, so it doesn't matter which one you take.

Note that the 42nd Street stop on the A-C-E line is not actually Times Square. The 42nd Street stop on the A-C-Eline is 42nd Street-Port Authority. That is because the A-C-E line runs up and down 8th Avenue, while the Times Square Station, and the 1-2-3, are at 7th Avenue.

However, there is an underground tunnel connecting the 42nd Street Station on the A-C-E line to the Times Square Station, so you can transfer without exiting the subway system.

2) At the Times Square Station, transfer to the S shuttle train (color code grey) east across 42nd Street, from Times Square (West 42nd) to Grand Central Station (East 42nd).

3) At Grand Central Station, transfer to the Uptown 4-5-6(the dark green line). Depending on which part of the hospital you're going to (the south end or the north end) you'll want to get off at either 59th Street or 68th Street-Hunter College.

The 4 and 5 are express trains, and will not stop at 68th Street. They will only stop at 59th. The stops on the 4 and 5 go: 42nd Street ---> 59th Street ---> 86th Street ---> 125th Street. The 6 is a local train, and will stop at both 59th AND 68th.

4) You will get off the train at either East 59th or East 68th Street and Lexington Avenue, on the east side of the street (the west side of the street is the Downtown side, and the east side of the street is the Uptown Side).

5) Start walking east to York Avenue. The avenue blocks on the East Side, from west to east, go: Fifth Avenue ---> Madison Avenue ---> Park Avenue ---> Lexington Avenue ---> 3rd Avenue ---> 2nd Avenue ---> 1st Avenue ---> York Avenue.

How do you take the LIRR to Brooklyn Federal courthouse?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The federal courthouse in Brooklyn is US District Court East, at 225 Cadman Plaza East.

Which subway route to take depends on where you're coming from. You can take the F (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) to York Street, the A or C (of the A-C-E, the blue line) to High Street, the 2 or 3 (of the 1-2-3, the red line) to Clark Street, the N or R (of the N-R-Q, the yellow line) to Court Street, or the 4 or 5 (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line) to Borough Hall.

I have listed the stations in descending order. Each one is further south than the last (i.e., the F to York Street is the furthest north, then the A or C to High Street-Brooklyn Bridge, then the 2 or 3 to Clark Street, etc.)

The FThe F to York Street will drop you off on Jay Street, near the corner of Jay and Sands Streets, on the west side of the Manhattan Bridge.

Walk north on Jay Street to Prospect Street, turn left, and walk west on Prospect Street to Cadman Plaza East. Then turn left and walk south on Cadman Plaza East to 225.

The A or CThe A or C to High Street will drop you off at Cadman Plaza East, which forms the eastern border of Brooklyn War Memorial Park. Walk south on Cadman Plaza East to 225. The 2 or 3The 2 or 3 to Clark Street will drop you off at the corner of Clark and Henry Streets. Walk two blocks east on Clark Street to Cadman Plaza West, then walk straight east through the park to Cadman Plaza East. The address 225 Cadman Plaza East is pretty much exactly where Clark Street is. The N or RThe N or R to Court Street will drop you off at the corner of Clinton and Montague Streets. Walk half a block east on Montague Street to Cadman Plaza West, then walk north on Cadman Plaza West to Clark Street, then turn right at Clark Street and walk straight across the park to 225 Cadman Plaza East.

Note: the N train only stops at Court Street at night (11 PM to 5:30 AM) when the R isn't running. You CANNOT take the N unless you're traveling between 11 PM and 5:30 AM.

The 4 or 5The 4 or 5 to Borough Hall will drop you off on Joralemon Street, between Court and Adams Streets. Walk half a block west to Court Street, turn right, and walk north on Court Street until it becomes Cadman Plaza West, just a block or two north of Joralemon Street. Keep walking north on Cadman Plaza West to Clark Street, then turn right at Clark Street and walk straight east across the park to 225 Cadman Plaza East.

Where can you transfer from the E train to the R train on the New York City subway system?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In Manhattan, the only direct transfer from the E to the R, or the R to the E, is at 42nd Street. Take the E to 42nd Street-Port Authority Bus Terminal, and then walk through the tunnel that connects the 42nd Street-Port Authority station to the 42nd Street-Times Square station, and get the R at Times Square.

There are a number of ways to indirectly transfer from the E to the R. You can take the E to West 4th Street, transfer there to the Uptown B-D-F-M to 34th Street-Herald Square, and then transfer to the R at Herald Square.

Or, you can take the E to 14th Street, transfer there to the Brooklyn-bound L, take the L to 14th Street-Union Square, and transfer at Union Square to the R.

Or, you can take the E to 7th Avenue-53rd Street, transfer there to the Downtown B or D to 34th Street-Herald Square, and then transfer at Herald Square to the R.

Or, you can take the E to 5th Avenue-53rd Street, transfer there to the Downtown M, take the M to 34th Street-Herald Square, and transfer at Herald Square to the R.

Or, you can take the E to Lexington Avenue-53rd Street. Transfer is available between this station and the 51st Street station on the 6 train. Take the Uptown 6 one stop to 59th Street, and transfer there to the R.

The only other way to transfer directly from the E to the R or the R to the E is in Queens. You can transfer from one to the other at Forest Hills-71st Avenue, Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue, or Queens Plaza.

Which metal is used for railway track?

User Avatar

Asked by Tkjijas

It's the most appropriate material for the task: strong, hard-wearing, smooth to reduce rolling friction without compromising adhesion; slightly elastic to help it bear very high, very rapidly changing stresses; relatively easy to manufacture to consistent high material and dimensional quality, and to form, join etc on site.

Really, there is no suitable alternative.

Are dogs allowed on New York City subways?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. Animals are not allowed on New York City buses or subways, unless they are 1) contained in a proper carrier, or 2) service animals or police dogs. Since the animal must be small enough to fit in a container, large dogs are effectively prohibited from riding on buses or subways (unless, of course, they are a seeing-eye dog or a police dog).

See the Related Link below for the MTA Rules of Conduct. Scroll down to the second part of section 1050.9, paragraphs 1 and 2. That is where it spells out the rules about animals on board.

What subway do you take from Penn Station to 205 East 64th street?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The address 205 East 64th Street is between 3rd and 2nd Avenues, but very close to 3rd. Lexington Avenue is the next avenue west from 3rd Avenue (from west to east, the avenues on the Upper East Side go: 5th ---> Madison ---> Park ---> Lexington ---> 3rd ---> 2nd ---> 1st ---> York ---> East End).

You can take the Uptown E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 34th Street-Penn Station to 53rd Street-Lexington Avenue. Transfer is available from this station to the 51st Street Station on the 6 train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line). Walk through the tunnel that connects the two stations, and take the Uptown 6 to 68th Street-Hunter College (at Lexington Avenue).

There's another route that requires less walking, but requires you to go Downtown and then back Uptown: take the Downtown A, C or E from 34th Street-Penn Station to West 4th Street. Transfer at West 4th Street to the Uptown F (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line) and take the F to 63rd Street-Lexington Avenue.
