Where you land
Manhattan, block by block
The right crossing is a function of your destination as much as your budget. PATH owns the Financial District; the Airport Express bus owns the Midtown core; a black car owns the far East Side after dark. Pick your neighborhood and the corridor reorders itself around it.
