Mott Haven is only 20 minutes from Union Square.

DIRECTIONS TO BRONX SPACE:

The Bronx space is on the NW corner of Bruckner Blvd and Lincoln Avenue:

http://maps.google.com/maps?oi=map&q=123+Lincoln+Avenue,+Bronx,+NY

The actual address is 11 Lincoln Avenue, but Mapquest and Google Maps display
the position incorrectly --- the above map shows the actual location of the
building.

BY SUBWAY:

The space is 20 minutes from Union Square. From Manhattan, 4-5 train to 125th,
transfer to 6 (the 4 also runs on the 6 track on Sunday, so be sure to
transfer to the 6), one stop to 3rd Ave/138th. Walk west 1 block or less to
Lincoln Avenue
(3rd Avenue also crosses there, so don't cross the street), walk 5 blocks
south on Lincoln Ave, and it's
on the NW corner of Lincoln and Bruckner. If you end up at 138th and Grand
Concourse by mistake, walk east, past the KFC, right on Lincoln Avenue (just
past 3rd Avenue), south
5 blocks to Bruckner, and it's on the NW corner.

BY CAR:

>From Manhattan: FDR to Willis Avenue bridge, left at fork, left on 138th. left
onto Alexander Avenue,
right on Bruckner Blvd, one block to the corner of Lincoln Avenue. From I-87
(Major Deegan): Madison Avenue/138th exit, left on 138th, take a right on
3rd Ave, stay right, go right of the bridge (not onto the bridge), left at end
of street, to end of the bridge ramp, space is on the NW corner of that
intersection. From I-278 (Bruckner): get on I-87N (Major Deegan), off at
Willis Ave, stay on 135th (go straight), left onto Alexander Avenue, right on
Bruckner Blvd, one block to the corner of Lincoln Avenue.
