A great facet of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania is its close proximity to Philadelphia and New York City. The best way to travel to these places is the train, or in this case, the Keystone Express.
To Philadelphia, it’s an hour and a half and from Harrisburg to New York City, the train ride is 3 and a half hours. I’ve always been a fan of the train. It’s a nostalgic and convenient way to travel. Not to mention plenty of time to get some needed work taken care of while en route.
What makes it even better is the walk from Lofts at 909 to the Harrisburg Train Station. I walk out the front steps and have a nice stroll through the state capitol grounds. All of the grounds are well kept and the buildings are quite a sight to see. I emerge on the other end seeing the train station just up the street. Even if I’m returning at night, the grounds are well lit and safe.
Not only am I living well in Lofts at 909, I also have the ease of being in New York City in time for brunch. Stay tuned to my downtown travels and updates on Twitter and Facebook.
