Transportation and Transit
Subway and Bus Information:
- The MTA - navigate from the MTA site or go to Subway and bus information, Long Island Rail Road and Metro North Schedules.
- New Jersey Transit - Map and Schedules.
- Mapquest maps will give you nearby subway stations now. Put in the address. When you get a map, page down and select "Auto/Transit" tab. Then check "Transit Stops" box and update the map. (You'll usually get closest stops on each line but not all stops nearby.)
- Amtrak for information on trips in the northeast and more.
Automobile:
- NYC Department of Transportation's Real Time Cameras. Click on Advanced Traveler Information System and then select the Manhattan page. Click on one of the little cameras for a real-time view of traffic conditions. Very cool, though not all cameras are working all the time.
- Traffic information from MetroCommute.com. Somewhat odd design and you can't link to a specific spot. The cameras do not cover our neighborhood.
- Heading north? This is Hudson Valley information, including the New York Thruway. Click on "Current Conditions" button.

Gardening Suppliers
- Chelsea Garden Center opened on 10th Avenue & 38th Street. Well equipped and they also deliver.

- Gardeners Supply is a mail order source for compost, fertilizer, and other supplies.
- Park and Burpee have mostly seeds and miscellaneous supplies
- Mellingers is a supplier with a lot of stuff but they do not have the most sophisticated web site.
- Also, don't forget Jack's 99 Cent Store and Odd Job, particularly in season. They often have potting soil, pots, tools and other supplies. Odd Job is on Lexington north of 45th Street and Jack's is on 40th Street off Madison Avenue.
