Is the number in the address odd or even? If odd, the loading dock will be on 35th St, if even, 33rd. Regardless, READ THE PARKING SIGNS CLOSELY and know that the rules will be enforced with Nazi-style strictness. Good luck.

Not sure exactly where your headed but I usually take the Lincoln tunnel into manhatten, saves over an hour sometimes, I always go in at 6 am, drop and escape back to jersey, which still smells.............tunnel toll is the same as the gw, just watch out at the tunnel exit, it's got a bus turn only that takes a lot of people by surprise, and you need to rely on a real map as your gps might not lock in fast enough. I've made about 16 treks into the city this year already. See people, sometimes I can be serious, and not a smarty ***!

Not being a smart *** is my new mission, to help others here, if your going to take the lincoln tunnel, your restricted to 13' height, don't risk it if over,ImageUploadedByEO Forums1371397098.763804.jpg I'm 12'6 so it's a no brainer, I think the limit on width is 102 and all the bus's are 102, and it's non stop bus traffic, there is plenty of room. what time is your delivery?

Out of respect to my carrier I won't give out the name but it is in the clothing district and loadin street is 35th. My truck clearance is 13'1" so no tunnel so my options as I see it is G.W. to Bradway allthe way down. or take 278 acrass bridge. Load in is at 6:00am so I plan on being there at 3:00 am and hang out till 6:00 am.

When I drove motorcoach I would go through lincoln tunnel turn right out of tunnel, two blocks 34th st. prolly turn left to get to what you're looking for
