Target

517 East 117th Street

New York, NY 10003

Proximity: How to arrive from 2nd Street. Take the 6 train from Bleeker Street Station to 116th Street. Exit at 116th Street. Make a left on Plesant Ave. Arrive on 117th Street.

45-50 minutes away

Price: Cheap (But with the traveling, you have to ask yourself is it worth it?)

If you’re a loyalist, Target may just be for you. It’s cheap and affordable with decent quality stuff (including food and clothes) but its location in Harlem has to beg the question: is it worth it?

Target is a well known brand and some people may just have to have their linens from Target. Others may save themselves the nearly hour long pilgramage to Harlem and just settle for some sheets from K-Mart or Bed, Bath, & Beyond (18th and 6th Avenue). 

You decide if you want to go that far. If you do, expect the wonderfulness that the red dot usually brings.

Open Monday through Saturday 8:00am to 11:00pm. Sunday 8:00am to 10:00pm.
