Not far. It's between 6 and 6.5 miles (9.7 to 10.5 kilometers) from LaGuardia Airport to East 59th Street, driving west on the Triboro Plaza, over the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, and then down the East Side of Manhattan.
JFK Airport is about 18 miles from Midtown Manhattan.
It is little more than 5 miles between LaGuardia Airport and Harlem as a straight shot (in Manhattan). If you are specifically asking for Midtown, it's between 6 and 6.5 miles (9.7 to 10.5 kilometers) from LaGuardia Airport to East 59th Street, driving west on the Triboro Plaza, over the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, and then down the East Side of Manhattan.
Madison Square Garden is located in midtown Manhattan, New York City. The three major airports serving NYC are LaGuardia, JFK and Newark.
The actual distance from LaGuardia to mid-town is 6.5-7 miles, depending upon selected route. Actual travel time will vary based on traffic, and means of transportation.
The driving distance from Boston Logan to Laguardia is 209 miles
11.9 miles 26 minutes
13 miles
They are about 10.5 to 11 miles apart as the crow flies (meaning, if you were to draw an imaginary straight line between them on the map). The distance in road miles is about 14 miles, up the New Jersey Turnpike from Newark Airport, turning right onto route 495, and through the Lincoln Tunnel into Midtown on the West Side.
The Hudson River - this answer is wrong. The Hudson River is on the West side of Manhattan. The East River is on the East side of Manhattan. Laguardia airport is actually on Long Island. The East River still flows past the north side of LI where LGA is located.
It doesn't matter. All three of the major airports in the New York City area -- LaGuardia, JFK and Newark -- are roughly equidistant from Manhattan. LaGuardia is the closest by maybe five miles.
It is about 4.5 miles (7.24 kilometers). Brooklyn and Queens both occupy the western end of Long Island, and Queens is on top of Brooklyn. LaGuardia Airport is at the northern edge of Queens. The northern edge of Brooklyn is roughly 4.5 miles/7.24 kilometers south of LaGuardia.
LaGuardia Airport is located in northern Queens and south of the Bronx. It is a short bus/subway trip to most of the city. Beware that there are more flight delays started at LaGuardia than anywhere else in the country.
