In New York the commute decides who accepts your job offer. These are the transit anchors worth building an office search around.
Grand Central — the commuter capital
Metro-North from Westchester and Connecticut, the 4/5/6, 7 and S lines, and now the Long Island Rail Road all meet under one roof. Buildings on Park and Madison within a five-minute walk — including the Helmsley Building — command a premium for exactly this reason. Browse offices near Grand Central.
34th Street–Penn Station — the widest catchment
NJ Transit, LIRR, Amtrak and eight subway lines. 5 Penn Plaza and its neighbours suit companies whose staff is scattered across three states. See offices near Penn Station.
Times Square–42nd Street — the busiest interchange
Eleven lines converge here, which makes Midtown–Times Square the easiest address to reach from anywhere in the city. Media, advertising and hospitality cluster in the towers around it. Start at Times Square offices.
Wall Street and Fulton Street — Downtown’s twin hubs
Between them they cover a dozen subway lines plus PATH to New Jersey, at Downtown prices. Look at offices near Wall Street and Fulton Street.
