One and half miles. The bridge itself is a mile long.

The 4,5,6 Subway to City Hall or
The M5 bus goes right down Broadway or
The M20 cuts through Battery Park City; you’d have to get off before it turns west on Chambers.
You should check the mta.info site for up-to-date mass transit information and best subway station to go t our event. .
PATH trains will be running all night long to 33rd Street. To minimize walking, we suggest you take it to 33rd Street, where you can connect to the R subway train. Take that to Cortlandt Street and you’re a block away from the meeting location.
Afterwards, if you walk back to Manhattan, there is an uptown R station the Broadway side of City Hall Park you could take back to 33rd. If you go to Brooklyn you could take the A train to West 4th Street and walk 5 blocks up 6th Avenue to the 9th Street PATH station. There are other options but these are the most efficient.
