New Tork is a big city. Sometimes I get lost. Sometimes I’m going somewhere, I don’t know how long it will take, and I show up late.
No more wandering aimlessly for me. I’ve found HopStop.com, a snazzy site for finding directions to and from anywhere in New York City. I can just type in the address of point A and the address of point B, and hit the button.
The site tells me where to walk, when to turn and what subway or bus I need to take. It also gives me an estimated arrival time. It has an option for departure time so I believe it takes into account rush hour.
According to the site you can send directions to a cell phone or pda, plan an itinerary and find the nearest subway and bus stops. They also have maps and a city guide for those of us who don’t really have a destination in mind already.
