“from downtown New York City to the West Side”
$50 is what you’d expect if you lived in nyc, or been there enough
Not from the area, what’s the deal/context?
I’m assuming it’s a traffic cluster fuck?
It’s one of the densest, most populated 2.9 miles in the world. The route takes you through the core of manhattan/nyc.
Thank you! That’s what I was missing!
It's 5 to 7 miles, possibly in traffic. 20 to 50 minutes, depending on the time of day. It's like $30, but could double during rush hour or any popular time of day.
So yeah, $50 whenever you want to go. $30 in the middle of the night.
TIL thank you!
