I just came back from a night club in astoria and I live in the South BRonx. The fastest and easiest way to get from Astoria to the south Bronx is the m60 bust from Astoria boulevard. The next stop after Astoria boulevard is 125 street and 2nd avenue and from they are a couple of options. One option is the transfer to the Bx15 which will take you across the Willis avenue bridge and boom your in the Bronx, two transfer to the 4,5,6 or metro north at 125 and lex if you wanna hit the rails, three walk across the Willis avenue bridge. All three options will get you to 149th street but these options very by traffic congestion patterns. During Rush hours your best bet is the N and Q train from Astoria to 59th and Lexington but of peak hours and late nights I would suggest the M60 to harlem and catch the BX15. Sometimes its difficult to pick a route, this is what goes through my head living in the most geographically strategic niegborhood in NYC.
