DIRECTIONS
FROM NYC BY TRAIN:
– Metro North from Grand Central Station to New Rochelle (approximately 30 minutes.).
– At station, walk up the stairs and locate Huguenot St. (first corner), which is a one-way street.
– Walk along Huguenot AGAINST TRAFFIC, until you get to the Radisson (ten-story building on left
– 8-minute walk from station).

FROM NYC, LONG ISLAND OR POINTS SOUTH BY CAR:
– Take I-95 north to exit 16. (From Long Island, cross Whitestone or Throgs Neck Bridge, and follow signs to I-95 North.) At Exit 16, keep left at the fork in the exit ramp.
– Make the first left onto Garden St., and go approximately 1/2 block.
– Make the first right onto Cross Westchester Ave/Cedar St., and go under the underpass.
– Get into one of the two left lanes as soon as you can, and proceed to the first light.
– Just beyond the light on your left you will see a small sign for the Radisson. Turn left at that sign and then turn right into the parking lot entrance. You will be at the rear of the hotel. Walk around to the main entrance.

FROM NORTHWEST WESTCHESTER AND CONNECTICUT:
– Take I-95 south to exit 16 IN WESTCHESTER (Note: NOT exit 16 in Norwalk, Connecticut!)
– As you leave the exit ramp you will drive into a traffic circle. Be sure to stay in the circle (bearing to your left); staying too far to the right will take you off the circle too soon.
– Go approximately halfway around the circle (following the signs to Cedar St.) til you come to a stop sign in the circle. From there bear right and go under the underpass.
