Too far...ones east, one is west. I guess you could walk it 30 mins...

I'd take the shuttle subway to times square, the the 1 down, and walk from there ( a short walk ).

Google maps shows 1.1 miles, 23 minutes. Might be a bit longer if you have to navigate through the crowds on the sidewalks or wait for a lot of lights.

You know, yo guys can use Google Maps and get the directions with the designation of "walking" directions. You can see how long it will take to get anywhere. Much easier than waiting for a messageboard to respond.

Google Maps has a directions feature with a walk option. At 3 miles/hour, every half mile takes 10 minutes. A half mile is about 8 street blocks. Just walk, the buses are crowded and trains are complex. However, please observe all the usual rules of driving, but for walking. Walk on the right, pass on the left, pull over to stop, go the speed of traffic, don't stop in the middle of an intersection, etc.
