Time Square New York

About Time Square New York

Times Square sits at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue between West 42nd and West 47th Streets, the centre of Manhattan’s Theatre District. More than 50 million visitors a year pass through the district, and the surrounding blocks hold a high concentration of hotels - from the Marriott Marquis and Westin to the Hyatt Centric and dozens of mid-tier and budget options. The TKTS booth, Broadway theatres, and the bulk of Midtown’s tourist traffic anchor the area.

For Taxi2Airport, Times Square functions as a pickup-and-drop hub: visitors staying at Theatre District hotels book private transfers from arrivals at JFK, LaGuardia, or Newark, and onward to the cruise terminals or other boroughs.

Getting from Time Square to New York

Times Square is in central Midtown, with practically every Manhattan destination 5–25 minutes away by car. Grand Central is 1 km east (10 minutes), Penn Station 1 km south (5–10 minutes), Hudson Yards 1 km west (10 minutes), and the Financial District 8 km south (15–25 minutes).

For airport transfers, drivers head east through the Queens-Midtown Tunnel to LGA and JFK, or west through the Lincoln Tunnel for Newark. Cruise transfers are short - Manhattan Cruise Terminal at Pier 88/90 is 1.5 km west, around 10 minutes.

Pickup area

Pre-booked drivers pick up at the hotel forecourt or the kerbside spot specified by the hotel doorman. Hotels in the West 44th–47th Streets between Sixth and Eighth Avenues block are the most common, with established staging routines for private cars. The driver arrives at the booked time and coordinates directly with the bell desk.
