Most likely that is an address located in NoHo , Manhattan. Taxi(yellow cab) would be the best way to get there - it is flat fare of $50 plus tip and it would take around 40-50 mins to get there.
Public transportation is the cheapest way - Airtrain to Jamaica Station, then subway E to Lexington Ave stop and then downtown bound line 6. Get off at Bleecker street stop. Walk north 2 blocks on Lafayette str and make right on Great Jones Street - the address is right around the corner.

Where in Brooklyn is your destination? Fastest is by taxi, $30-$40. Cheapest is by Airtrain/subway ($7.25), subway route depends on where you're going. Airtrain to Howard Beach Station and A subway will take you to downtown Brooklyn where you can transfer to most other subway lines.

Hotel shuttle
We arrive at Terminal 3 and need to get to Federal Circle to locate a hotel Shuttle. It appears that both Howard Beach and Jamaica Station routes from Terminal 3 stop at Federal Circle. Can we take either? Does the AirTrain system run counter-clockwise around the terminals? How long will this take? Thanks for your help.
You can take either one -
You can take either one - both stop at FC. It will take you ~10 mins.
10 hour layover- going to Statue of Liberty
We have a 10 hour layover @ JFK and we would like to visit the statue of liberty. We arrive @ 12p on Delta, then we would like to check in our bags @ Virgin Atlantic for our flight to London @ 10:30p, and head to Battery Park for the ferry. Can we do it? If so, what is the quickest and cheapest way to accomplish this? Could we be able to check in our bags or should we keep them in luggage storage @ JFK?
Thanks
You can do it if things fall
You can do it if things fall into place perfectly. Let's look at your time frame:
Arrive at 12noon check/store bags for later flight, taxi/public transportation to Battery Park/Castle Clinton, get there around 2pm, purchase ferry tickets, wait in line for the ferry (best to book tickets online! www.statuecruises.com) which stops at the Statue first and then Ellis Island. Depending on what time you catch the ferry will dictate how much time you will have to spend there. Last ferry leaves Statue at 6pm. Return trip to JFK to arrive by 8pm or thereabouts. Check with Virgin Atlantic when the earliest you can check bags. There's luggage storage facilities in terminals 1,4,8. Taxi will be fastest to/from JFK.
