Yes - the C train is no use if you are going up 5th. But, just a few days ago we went up the West Side to 86th and had a pleasant walk through the park for an afternoon at the Met. Up and down 5th you either walk or take the bus. Personally, I’d walk; it’s usually faster.

This is not surprising, when you know how it works. To expect anything different is naive.

why do you think ChatGPT has any actual references for the stuff it hallucinates? If you ask, it will just hallucinate references.
