Isn't that less than two miles away?
I suppose he could also have to travel down 79th a bit, but Manhattan is only about 2 miles wide anyway, right? So like...worst case scenario, a four mile walk.
Okay. That would be a significant walk. Probably an hour or two. But in NYC, how likely is it that you can get to your car, travel to your destination four miles away, find parking, and then walk to your destination (1) in less than an hour, and (2) for less than $9?
Get a bike, bro. Or hey, I hear New York has this fancy new doohickey called a "subway."
It's about a 24 minute walk or a 17 minute journey by bus
Under 10m by bike
If you catch all the lights. Urban biking can be a bit weird to time correctly.
What lights?
...spoken two seconds after almost hitting two pedestrians
Wild!
