Driving Directions to Columbia University

Street parking can be found in the neighborhood, and there are parking garages located on 114^th Street and on 122^nd Street, both East of Broadway between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue, as well as at Riverside Church’s garage which is located on 120^th Street, West of Broadway between Broadway and Claremont Avenue.

By Train or Bus: Trains to New York arrive at Grand Central Station or Pennsylvania Station (One may take the #1 Subway from within Pennsylvania Station.), while buses stop at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, where a visitor can take either public transportation (see below) or a taxi north (uptown) to the campus.

By Air: For visitors coming into LaGuardia, Kennedy, or Newark airports, taxi service is available to the campus, and there is bus service to Grand Central Station and the Port Authority Bus Terminal. The M60, a New York City Bus, goes from LaGuardia Airport to Columbia stopping at 116^th Street and Broadway.

By Public Transportation: Four bus lines (M4, M11, M5, and M104) and a subway train (the Broadway IRT No. 1 Local) serve the Columbia/Morningside Heights area from midtown Manhattan. The Columbia stop is on Broadway at 116^th Street for the subway, Broadway and 116^th Street for the M4 and M104 buses, Riverside Drive and 116^th Street for the M5 bus, and Amsterdam Avenue and 116^th Street for the M11 bus. Do not use IRT express trains Nos. 2 and 3 above 96^th Street. While those two trains run parallel to the No. 1 train up to 96^th Street, they follow a different route after that and do not stop at Columbia University.
