Subway to Saint Vincent's (1603 Brooklyn Avenue) Take the #2 or the #5 to the end (Brooklyn College/Flatbush Avenue) and then walk over to Glenwood Road and up six blocks or so to where Glenwood intersects with Brooklyn Avenue. The rectory is located at the intersection of Glenwood Road and Brooklyn Avenue.
Driving to Saint Vincent's (from Manhattan) Come down the West Side Drive to the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. Once out of the Tunnel, ascend up the elevated incline and stay in the left or center lanes. Once you're descending the hill (1 1/2 miles from the toll) bear left onto the Prospect Expressway. Stay on this to the end ( 2- 3 miles) and it will turn into Ocean Parkway.
At the first traffic light, you will be at Ocean Parkway (equivalent to "Avenue A"). You'll be taking Ocean Parkway down to Avenue J. Make a left on Avenue J and take it to Brooklyn Avenue (i.e., East 37th Street). Make a left onto Brooklyn Avenue for 3 - 4 blocks until you reach the corner of Glenwood Road.
