Where to meet halfway between Park Slope and Upper East Side

Park Slope (Brooklyn) and Upper East Side (Manhattan) are about 7.3 miles apart, roughly 41 minutes end to end on the subway. Both are served by the Q, so you can meet along that line and neither of you has to change.

Start around Williamsburg

Williamsburg in Brooklyn sits closest to the middle of the two and has cocktail bars, natural wine rooms and destination restaurants around Bedford and Grand. It is served by the L, G, J, M and Z. Treat it as the opening suggestion rather than the answer: once you enter your exact addresses, Triangulmate routes real door-to-door times and may land a few stops either side of it.

Making it fair, not just central

Two people the same distance from a restaurant can have very different evenings: one walks to an express stop, the other waits for a bus and changes at a hub. Triangulmate compares each person's door-to-door time for the day and hour you are meeting, drops anything lopsided, and pushes down journeys that force extra transfers. Set a walking cap and a maximum gap between the two trips, and pick cuisine, price and party size before you search.
