Project Hospitality’s youth drop-in center is about 2.99 miles from the nearest rail station, measured in a straight line.
Bus and ferry options are outside this analysis. This distance alone does not describe overall transit access.

This independent map brings together 21 public service access points from NYC’s official directories: eight adult drop-in centers, five shelter intake locations, and eight youth drop-in centers.
For each service, I calculated the straight-line distance to every station in the MTA subway and Staten Island Railway dataset and kept the nearest. The open circle marks the station centroid; the filled endpoint marks the service address. These are proximity links, not walking routes. Bus stops, entrances, crossings, step-free access and current service changes are not included.
Drop-in centers offer services and referrals; a point is not a promise of an overnight bed. Intake centers handle shelter applications for specific household groups. Youth centers serve ages 14–24; their hours vary. Check the official page or call the provider before travel. No “open now” or live bed-availability claim is made.
Official directories were checked November 2, 2026. Points use U.S. Census address interpolation and mark approximate street locations, not surveyed entrances. Existing adult-center coordinates were cross-checked against NYC Open Data; differences were at most 0.05 miles. NYC311’s current hours take precedence over older Open Data comments. Two intake addresses reflect August 2026 relocations. An older youth-directory page was not used.
This is a directory of the publicly listed access points in these sources, not all NYC shelters or a measure of neighborhood need. Confidential sites and individual people are not mapped. Rail distance does not establish how easy a service is to reach. The two endpoints represent recorded locations, not verified entrances. Boroughs: NYC Department of City Planning.
