Greenpoint's commute can be tricky - there are no direct train lines into Manhattan, which is the neighborhood's main drawback. The G train at Greenpoint Avenue and Nassau Avenue connects to other Brooklyn subway hubs where you transfer to Manhattan-bound trains. Total commute time averages about 35 minutes, which is typical Brooklyn but lacks one-seat convenience. Above ground, B24, B32, B43, B48, and B62 buses serve Greenpoint and connect to adjacent neighborhoods. The East River Ferry is also an option.
