One beverage included, light snacks available for purchase. Directions: We will meet at Chelsea Piers, which is 0.5 miles from the nearest subway station (23rd St on the C/E) or 0.1 miles from the nearest bus station (M23-SBS). Please feel free to reach out to Raeann and Sophia for help with specific directions from your location. Classic Harbor Line will be our charter company for this trip, and their boats depart from Chelsea Piers, on Pier 62, at West 22nd Street and the Hudson River. To get to the pier, you will need to cross the West Side Highway via one of the crosswalks at 18th, 20th, or 23rd Street. Go around the north side (to your right when facing the river) of the large blue building. The ticket booth is located on the walkway next to the water on Pier 62. Please check in at the Classic Harbor Line ticket booth upon arrival, and you will be escorted to the boat by the Captain when it is time to board.

The simplest way to get from the pier to dinner is by bus - or walking! The walk is 1.2 miles and will probably take the same amount of time (or be faster) than public transit or cab, so if you want to get some steps in be sure to wear comfy shoes. Bus directions: - Starting from Chelsea Piers, walk north (river is on your left) on 11th Ave - Turn right on 23rd St. Immediately after turning you should see a bus stop for the eastbound M23-SBS on your right, which is where you will wait. - Try to catch the eastbound M23-SBS bus at 5:38pm (or earlier) - Take the eastbound M23-SBS for 5 stops - Get off at E 23rd Street/Broadway - Walk west until you hit Broadway, then turn right to go north. Madison Square Park will be on your right. - Continue north on Broadway for 3 blocks. You will have to turn left to cross over 5th Avenue to stay on Broadway (the avenues intersect). - Pecora Bianca will be on your left before you reach 26th Street.
