Tomorrow is the NYC Marathon and 4th Ave may be hard or impossible to transverse. If you're coming from the west side of 4th ave, plan on taking a little longer to get to the box. You may need to cross the street underground, the Manhattan-bound Union Street stop, 4th Ave stop and Atlantic Pacific stop all let out on the east side of 4th ave.

Happy Halloween!
