Fort Hamilton - Coffee Connections

Military spouses join USO Fort Hamilton and West Point as we venture into New York City for our June USO Coffee Connection! An itinerary of the day is below. Please note that this is subject to change: We will meet at the Fort Hamilton Main Gate by 9:30 AM and take the 9:59AM X27 Express Bus to Manhattan. Please anticipate a one-hour bus ride into the city. Upon arrival in Manhattan, we will walk a few blocks to meet the West Point group. USO will cover the commute costs.

We will be enjoying a private tour of the Highline park, which starts at 11:30/45AM. “The High Line may be about two stories high—but it’s hundreds of stories deep.” We will meet our guide at the south end of the Highline and walk our way north. The tour is approximately 90 minutes and lets us out near Hudson Yards.

Once at Hudson yards attendees will have approximately an hour to enjoy the shops, get a bite and enjoy the area.

When done everyone will enjoy a brisk walk back to 23rd Street & Broadway to catch the X27 Express bus back to Ft. Hamilton.

With such a busy day, we want to make sure you have what you need: Be ready to walk! Wear comfortable shoes. Sneakers are highly recommended! Keep an eye on the weather and dress comfortably! Bring a small bag that you can carry your personal belongings.
