+donbadabon Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 There are daily bus trips from Washington D.C. to New York that are really cheap ($20). The bus stops in New York at the following address: 88 E. Broadway New York, NY 10002 But for the life of me, I can't seem to find that on the caching maps. Would anyone point me to the cache closest to that address? Looking to take a weekend and head up that way, and wanted to maximize my caching day. Thanks for any help. don Quote Link to comment
+Team MM Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 (edited) http://maps.google.com/maps?q=88+E.+Broadw...,0.117090&hl=en This should get you the area. Closest cache looks like: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...b4-78ccc9211b53 Edited September 17, 2005 by Team MM Quote Link to comment
+macatac1961 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 In case you want to take the subway up to the park. Quote Link to comment
+splicingdan Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Yikes! 88 East Broadway is in the heart of Chinatown - underneath the Manhattan Bridge. It's like a giant bucket of slime there - fish markets on top of produce markets on top of more fish markets and absolutely jammed with people. Are you sure that the bus stop is there?

+Harry Dolphin Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Dan, didn't we log one of your caches there?!? Quote Link to comment
+splicingdan Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Dan, didn't we log one of your caches there?!? Close...about 5 blocks east. If you recall, it was in front of Seward Park. I just find it strange that a bus would stop there. Quote Link to comment
+donbadabon Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 Thanks for the great info! And yes, that is where the bus says it picks up and drops off passengers. Quote Link to comment
+Tiffany's Slaves Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 This might be a "Chinese bus" that takes people, especially restaurant workers and shoppers back and forth Quote Link to comment
+donbadabon Posted September 17, 2005 Author Share Posted September 17, 2005 No, it is a passenger bus that takes people from Washington D.C., Baltimore, and Philly into NY, and back. Quote Link to comment
+Tim M CPA Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I used to live in Jersey City NJ, and I worked on Madison Ave, NY. The bus is a china express by definition; however it is open to everyone and is an excellent source for travel cheap from what I hear; however, it might be a slow boat but who knows, i never did it. The caches in NY are difficult in respect to signal bounce and crowds.... Try the scottsman for example in central park.... It is fun though and you should have fun, NYC is a great place and any geocaches you pick up there should be fun.... Quote Link to comment
