By Subway:
There are four subway lines that all come within 10 blocks (a 5 to 15 minute walk at the most, depending on the line).
The "C" train is closest (or the "A" train after 11 PM). Get off at the Clinton-Washington stop. If you are coming from Manhattan, be at the front of the train; if from further out in Brooklyn/Queens, be at the back of the train. You will exit onto Washington Avenue and Fulton St. Look for a large sign that says "Zion Baptist Church" and walk in that direction on Washington. Go four blocks (slightly uphill) to Bergen St., turn left and walk one block to the corner of Grand Ave. Our building is on the right. The C train and the A train run on the same track. The A is usally express and the C is usually local. After 11 pm, the A runs local and replaces the C. There is no wheelchair access from this subway.
The next closest is the "2/3" train. Take either to the Eastern Parkway stop. You will exit in front of the Brooklyn Museum, or across Eastern Parkway on the residential side. Get to the residential side and look for the nearest cross street, which is within 100 feet. That's Washington Ave. If you are facing the museum, it will be to your LEFT. When you get to the corner of Washington Ave. and Eastern Parkway, turn left and walk downhill on Washington (you will see Manhattan in the distance) 4 blocks to Park Place. You will see a police precinct on your right and lots of cars parked around it. Grand Ave. begins right there. Keep going the same direction, straight down Grand 3 blocks to Bergen, and you will see our building on your left. The entrance is on the Bergen St. side of the building.
Third closest is the "Q" train. Get off at the Prospect Park stop, switch to the "S" shuttle and go two stops to the Franklin Ave. stop. Just like the 2/3 train, you will exit onto Eastern Parkway, only a few blocks further away from Washington Ave. If you are unsure of which direction to walk in, simply ask someone "Which way is the Brooklyn Museum?" Walk approximately 5 blocks to Washington Ave. and follow the same directions as above for the 2/3.
The "G" train is the furthest away, but very convenient for people coming from Queens. Get off at the Clinton-Washington stop, and walk on Washington as the street numbers go UP. In three blocks, you will pass the "C" train exit, then follow the same directions as above for the C. It's a total of about 8-10 blocks, some of them long ones, but only a 15-minute walk at the most
Driving Directions:
Flatbush Ave. is a big main street in Brooklyn and runs right into the Manhattan Bridge. If you are coming from Manhattan, take that bridge onto Flatbush, go approximately 1 mile, and watch for a big cross street, Atlantic Ave. When you cross Atlantic, start watching for a Mobil gas station on your left. Immediately past the station is Dean St. Turn left on Dean, go six blocks to Grand, turn right on Grand one block to the corner of Bergen, and you will see our building on the far right corner. A cab ride from the West Village/Chelsea is about $13, from midtown just a few more. If you are coming from Queens or Staten Island and taking the BQE (Brooklyn Queens Expessway), get off at Tillary St., turn left 3 blocks to Flatbush Ave., turn right and follow the same directions as above.
Parking:
Parking is easy. There are always spaces on the next block on Bergen, between Grand and Classon, or scout around a bit and you will find a spot within a few blocks. There are no parking garages nearby. Do not leave possessions visible in your car. Cars of all types have parked in this area, and we've had no issues yet.
