Travel Note

Traveling to the venue From within the city

SUBWAYS: - L/1/2/3 to 14th Street + 15 minute walk - A/C/E/B/D/F/M to 4th Street + 15 minute walk - Google maps is extremely reliable with its NYC Subway directions - See our recommended neighborhoods above for the quickest commute OR cheapest lodging! CABS: - Uber and Lyft are both reliable car services within the city. Always check the license plate number before getting in since most of these cars are unmarked, and be aware that “pool” or “shared” cars will save you money, but cost you time. - Yellow & Green NYC cabs will generally be overpriced compared to the apps, but are reliable in a pinch or for short distances. They all accept credit cards, and if they tell you they don’t, they are swindling you. - NEVER take gypsy cabs/black cabs/unmarked cabs. CARS: We recommend not driving your car into the city or renting a car. Parking garages are expensive and street parking is a nightmare. Public transit and cabs are your best friend!
