How do you get from Penn Station to St. John's University?

Answer 1

John Jay College is at 10th Avenue and W. 58 St. in New York City. Penn Station is at 34 St. between 7th and 8th Avenues. Here are 3 ways to get there:

1) Walk to the 8th Avenue Subway (blue circles on the signs); take any Uptown train except the E train to 59 St. The C is on one platform, the A is on a different platform, so you have to pick one.

2) Walk to the 7th Avenue Subway (red circles on the signs); take an uptown #1 train to 59 St.

3) Upstairs on 8th Avenue itself (one way northbound) take an M10 or M20 bus (the "M" means "Manhattan", so almost every bus has an M in front of the number). Get off at 58 St. or 59 St. Finally, if it's a nice day, and you have easy luggage, just walk north of 8th Avenue (or 9th Avenue, or 10th Avenue) toward higher number streets and get there for free. No matter what you have to go west (higher numbered addresses) to 10th Avenue for the school.
