2 FUN WAYS OF COMMUTING:

The Subway - PureLife recommends the subway as the cheapest, quickest and best way to get around town and maximize what the city has to offer. The conference is located about 10 minute's walk from the 50th Street Station on the "C" and "E" lines.  http://www.mta.info

Yellow Cabs:  NYC is also known for its yellow cabs-- both on the ground and on water!  It may not always be the quickest, but it's definitely another fun ride as you get to see more of the area while you commute.
