Street parking is terrible in midtown and you would have to park in one of the underground lots which are very expensive even for just a few hours. Suggest you take public transportation to the Empire State Building. Most major subway lines and LIRR stop within a few blocks. From JFK take AirTrain to Jamaica Station and then either LIRR or E subway to Penn Station, walk two blocks or just look up, you can't miss it!
Hello
We will be arriving in JFK at 13:30 on Sunday, can you advise of the easiest and cheapest way to travel from JFK to our hotel, which is right by the Union St subway in Brooklyn?
Many thanks
Jennifer
Easiest is by taxi, cost would be around $50. Cheapest is by public transportation; take AirTrain from your terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to LIRR to Atlantic Terminal-Brooklyn, transfer to the Bay Ridge-bound R subway to Union St.
