How best to walk from Brooklyn Bridge to Macy's Herald Square?

Answer 1

The simplest way would be to walk west to Broadway, and then walk north on Broadway to 34th Street. Macy's is at 34th Street and Broadway.

The foot of the Brooklyn Bridge is at City Hall Park, and Broadway forms the western border of City Hall Park.

When you get to 14th Street-Union Square, Broadway's path is broken by Union Square Park. Broadway cuts off at the southeast corner of the park (at 14th Street), and its path resumes at the northwest corner of the park (at 17th Street). So you have to walk through the park or around it to get back onto Broadway.

Answer 2

The simplest way would be to just walk down Broadway. Macy's is at 34th and Broadway. Walk down Broadway, past City Hall Park, and when you get to Vesey Street (the next street south of City Hall Park), turn right and walk west 1 block to the corner of Vesey and Church Streets.

This intersection forms the northeast corner of the WTC site. The WTC site is bordered by West Street to the west, Church Street to the east, Vesey Street to the north, and Liberty Street to the south.
