I suggest the A train; it s express, and bypasses numerous stops between 168th and 59th. When on the A train, take it to 42nd street, which empties out in the center of Times Square. It s the fastest, most efficient way to get there.All the best ?
Take the uptown (northbound) #1, A or C subway lines (Red or Blue Line on the subway map) from Times Square to 168th Street. The Armory is just a short walk from the 168th Street subway station.Good luckNative New Yorker
The 1 to 42nd St. The A stops at 42nd also, but one long block from Times Square.
either one will take you to times square. the a will leave you on 8th and the 1 will leave you on 7th
saddle up and ride, cowboy!
