I drive in Manhattan a lot, usually downtown. You need a lot of time and patience but I'd rather drive and make my own schedule than be beholden to a train schedule, especially if I need to take the subway to the LIRR. When I used to work on William between Fulton and John, I used to ride the #2 or the #3 from Fulton to Flatbush Avenue. I'd leave my office at 6:25 pm for a 6:59 train to Far Rockaway. Thanks to various subway delays, et al, I often would make my train with only minutes to spare, which is crazy when you think about it - 1/2 hour from lower Manhattan to downtown Brooklyn? And the next Far Rock train from Flatbush was at 7:54 pm. |
