Public transit
Subways are the fastest way to get around during the day. After 10 PM- there’s usually construction and limited train schedule. Check MTA and MTA WEEKENDER for train changes and upcoming construction plans. If not, there’s always Lyft (usually cheaper), Uber or a Taxi (most expensive if you’re traveling far).
