How would you get from Penn Station to East 23rd Street and first Avenue by subway?

There is no convenient way to get there by subway, because you need to go pretty much straight across town, and there are very few subway lines that run crosstown.
I would just walk or take a cab. It's only a little over 1.5 miles (2.4 km): 10 or 11 blocks south to 23rd Street, then 8 or 9 avenue blocks east to 1st Avenue. Penn Station is at 33rd to 34th Street, between 8th and 7th Avenues. Actually, technically it's 9 or 10 blocks east, counting Broadway, but Broadway runs diagonally north/south and cuts between avenues, so the blocks it runs between are not full length.
If you really want to take the subway, then you can take the Uptown E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 34th Street-Penn Station to Lexington Avenue-53rd Street. This station is connected to the 51st Street Station on the 6train (of the 4-5-6, the dark green line). Take the Downtown 6 to 23rd Street (at Park Avenue South, 4 blocks east of 1st Avenue).
There's another route you can take. You'd have to make 2 transfers, but there'd be fewer stops, and you wouldn't be taken as far out of your way. You can take the Uptown 1-2-3 (the red line), 1 stop, from 34th Street-Penn Station to 42nd Street-Times Square.
Transfer at Times Square to the S shuttle train (color grey) east across 42nd Street, from Times Square (West 42nd) to Grand Central Station (East 42nd). At 42nd Street-Grand Central Station, transfer to the Downtown 6 to 23rd Street.

You need to take the A train (of the A-C-E, the blue line).

Then walk through the tunnel to the 42nd Street-Port Authority Station on the A-C-E line.Then get on the Downtown A train to the Howard Beach Station.

First Avenue is a very long avenue. It runs up and down almost the entire East Side of Manhattan. So you will probably need to take a look at a New York City subway map (see the Related Link below) to find out which subway stop is closest to you.The easiest way to get from the East Side of Manhattan to Carroll Street is to take the 4-5-6 (the dark green line), which runs up and down Lexington Avenue (above 42nd Street) and Park Avenue (below 42nd Street), and then transfer to the Ftrain (of the B-D-F-M, the orange line). The F train stops at Carroll Street.There are three main ways to transfer from the 4-5-6 to the F train in Manhattan:1) Take the 4-5-6 to 59th Street-Lexington Avenue, and then walk through the tunnel that connects the 59th Street-Lexington Avenue Station to the 63rd Street-Lexington Avenue Station on the F train. Free transfer is available only if you pay by Metrocard; otherwise, you will have to pay two separate fares. Take the Downtown F to Carroll Street.2) Take the 4-5-6 to 14th Street-Union Square, and transfer there to the Manhattan-bound L train (the grey line), one stop, from 14th Street-Union Square to 14th Street-6th Avenue.
