What subway do you take from Fifth Avenue and 53rd Street to Amsterdam Avenue and 113th Street?

Take the Downtown E train (of the A-C-E, the blue line) from 5th Avenue-53rd Street to 50th Street.Transfer at 50th Street to the Uptown C train, and take the Uptown C to 110th Street-Cathedral Parkway.You will exit the subway at the northwest corner of Central Park, at the corner of Central Park West and Central Park North (aka 8th Avenue and 110th Street).Walk three avenue blocks west to Amsterdam Avenue: 8th Avenue/CPW ---> Manhattan Avenue ---> Columbus Avenue/Morningside Drive (Columbus becomes Morningside Drive at 110th Street) ---> Amsterdam Avenue, and then three blocks north to 113th Street.You will probably want to walk west first, since if you walk north to 113th first, you'll have to cut across Morningside Park, which will be somewhat of a detour.

What is the zip code for West fourth Street between first and 11th Avenues?

I'm a bit confused by your question, since West 4th Street does not run from 11th to 1st Avenue. It begins as a south/north-running street at West 13th Street, between Hudson Street and Greenwich Avenue. After it passes through 7th Avenue South and 6th Avenue, it starts running east/west until it gets to Broadway. It turns into EAST 4th Street at Broadway, and continues running east until it hits Avenue D.From its starting point at West 13th Street between Hudson Street and Greenwich Avenue, until it hits 6th Avenue and starts running east/west, West 4th Street is in the 10014 zip code.From 6th Avenue to the Bowery, it belongs to the 10012zip code. Note that, in the 10012 zip code, West 4th Street forms the south border of Washington Square Park, and becomes Washington Square South for a couple of blocks.From the Bowery to 1st Avenue, West 4th Street (which is now East 4th Street) belongs to the 10003 zip code.From 1st Avenue to Avenue D, East 4th Street belongs to the 10009 zip code.
