NFT: LIRR to the Nassau Coliseum - Fastest Way

Anakim : 12/18/2018 9:24 pm
Hey guys,


I need to go really early tomorrow to the Long Island Marriott, which is apparently next to the Nassau Coliseum. I called them and they said the easiest way is to take the LIRR from Penn Station to Westbury and then take a cab/Uber (she said there's a cab stand). The whole trip would be an hour.

But then looking online, they said the best (and easiest/fastest way) is to take the LIRR to Mineola or Hempstead and then Uber it...but the estimate for that is 2 hours!?!?


So I'm calling upon my BBI brethren. What's the best way to get from Manhattan to the Long Island Marriott on James Doolittle Boulevard in Uniondale.



P.S. Yes, I'll be wearing a Rangers hat :)...but I'll be respectful!
I think Westbury is the closest stop

It’s on the Hicksville line. There is a bus from Westbury to the Nassau C but it might be better to Uber it

Shouldn’t take more than an hour total
I used to live in the condos at the Westbury train station

And that's the way to go. It's a 5-10 minute drive to the coliseum from there. A bunch of islanders and Jets used to live in that building.
Ah, I didn’t even read your post , just looked at the thread title

Woman at the Marriot is 100% correct. Btw, that Marriot used to be a huge pickup spot back in the day. Maybe you will get lucky
