Navigating the New York Subway System

For those who are not local to The Big Apple, there are many challenges to enjoying, navigating and interacting with the city. One of the primary challenges is utilizing transportation. While there is the famous hailing of a cab in nearly every movie staged in NYC, taxis are not the best mode of transport. In fact, with exception to bus fares, automobile travel is unwise in the Empire City. On-street parking is almost nonexistent, parking garages charge exorbitant rates, and traffic is constantly jammed. However, the New York subway system is a gem of the city and the perfect way to travel anywhere.

Many of the best hotels, as well as economy hotels, are intentionally located just blocks from subway stations making travel effortless and quick—certainly quicker than driving. For extended trips to Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, a one-week subway pass is the best purchase. For just $24, travelers have unlimited access to all subway lines and bus routes for seven days. At that affordable price, a tank of gas cannot compete.

Many affordable hotels reflect the expanded grid of the New York subway system. For example, the Excelsior Hotel on West 81st Street is nestled next to Central Park and located only two blocks from the 79th Street subway station. Because subway stations are often several blocks apart, most of Manhattan and other suburbs are easily linked to hotels in the heart of the town. Where stations are some distance from a hotel, a day- or week-pass gives travelers free access to buses that will connect one station to the next.

With a subway line for every color of the rainbow (the red, yellow and green are the major arteries) the best public transportation in the U.S. makes New York City one of the most stress-free commuter areas in the world. Travelers need only to learn how to read the maps (provided at the gates of every station) and keep tabs on the time in order to move effortlessly from North Wakefield to South Coney Island.
