Getting Around
The primary gateway to Manhattan for everyone using public transit.
You can catch trains that will take you either to downtown (World Trade Center) or midtown (34th Street) and several neighborhoods in between.
From leaving the apartment it takes about 40 minutes to make it to the center of Manhattan (including walking).
The PATH and the subway are technically separate systems, but you can use a pay-per-ride MetroCard for both and they're both $2.75 / ride.
