Hotel
For your convenience, we’ve reserved a block of rooms at The Doubletree Hotel Long Island City. Of course, you’re also welcome to stay at any hotel that best suits your travel plans.
Train
Be a real New Yorker and catch the F train, or for a unique view, take the aerial tramway from Manhattan. Once on Roosevelt Island, there is a free red Shuttle Bus that loops around the island. Catch it at any bust stop on the island and take it to the Octagon stop (888 Main Street). The Sanctuary is a 3-minute walk toward the river.
Travel Note
Uber, Lyft, or taxi drop-off is easiest at the Octagon by the red shuttle bus stop. Then it’s a 3-minute walk through the small parking lot of the Octagon (you’ll walk by tennis courts and a baseball field on your left, Octagon on your right). Turn right at the stop sign and follow the road down toward the river to reach The Sanctuary around the corner on your left; it’s a dead-end road.
Travel Note
The Sanctuary is tucked away on the northwest waterfront of Roosevelt Island, past the Octagon residential buildings. There is parking directly on site, with additional spots a 90 second walk from the venue.
