Walking in New York City
New York is the most walked city in America. Manhattan's numbered grid, the 24-hour subway and neighbourhoods that change character every few blocks make it a place where the best plan is often to pick a direction and go.
Terrain. Manhattan is largely flat; the slopes are in Central Park, Upper Manhattan and Brooklyn Heights. Bridges have long approach ramps but no stairs on the main walkways.
Distances. Twenty north–south blocks equal roughly a mile (1.6 km); crosstown blocks are two to three times longer. A 'quick walk' from 14th to 59th Street is 45 blocks, about 3.5 km.
