∙ 11y ago
The Jamaica station on the LIRR is connected to the Sutphin Boulevard-Archer Avenue station on the New York City subway system.
Transfer to the subway, and take the Downtown J-Z (the brown line) from Sutphin Blvd-Archer Ave to Chambers Street in Manhattan. This station is connected to the Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall station on the 4-5-6 (the dark green line). The Chambers Street/Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall station is located at City Hall Park, at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge.

If you are starting out on the E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line), then take the Uptown E to Sutphin Boulevard-Archer Avenue, and transfer there to the Downtown J-Z.
If you are starting out on the F train (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line), then take the Downtown Fto Briarwood-Van Wyck Boulevard, and transfer there to the Uptown E. Take the Uptown E 2 stops to Sutphin Blvd-Archer Ave, and transfer there to the Downtown J-Z.
Transferring from the F to the E to the J-Zis a hassle, but it's faster than going all the way across Queens and then all the way down Manhattan.

There are a couple of stations in Jamaica, Queens, so I don't know which one you're talking about: there's the Jamaica-179th Street stop on the F line (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line), and there's also a Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer stop on the J-Z (the brown line) and E (of the A-C-E, the blue line).The J-Z (the brown line) goes from Jamaica Center Parsons/Archer through north Brooklyn, and you can transfer to the L at the Broadway-Eastern Parkway Station.The F goes from Jamaica-179th Street into Manhattan, and then back out to Brooklyn. Or, you can get off the F at Forest Hills-71st Avenue, and transfer to the R train (of the N-R-Q-W, the yellow line).
