Houston Street (Manhattan) - Transportation

Transportation

As of 2010, Houston Street is served by the M21 bus from FDR Drive to Washington Street. The bus route itself had replaced an earlier streetcar line. A portion of the IND Sixth Avenue Line runs under Houston Street, between Sixth Avenue to just before Avenue A; there are stations at Second Avenue (F train) and Broadway – Lafayette Street (B D F M trains). Additionally, there is a station at Seventh Avenue, for the Houston Street (1 2 trains). The Bleecker Street (IRT Lexington Avenue Line) has station entrances on the north side of Houston Street, due to its connection with the Broadway - Lafayette Street station as part of a larger station complex. Exit 5 on the FDR Drive is on Houston Street. The street also connects directly with West Street and the West Side Highway.
