Best way to visit Ground Zero

What is the best way to visit Ground Zero?

Take a train from NJ?

Where are you coming from and what else do you plan to do in the city?

The PATH train from New Jersey terminates at the World Trade Center. When you come up to street level you're on the northwest corner of the Trade Center. The 9/11 memorial is on the south side of the complex, a very short walk. So if you're near the PATH, it would be a good option.

This is the start of planning for a visit in the spring or summer. Just looking for options.

Would you walk from Ground Zero to Battery Park to get the ferry to the Statue of Liberty?

yes.

9/11 memorial is great, I went a few weeks ago.

It's a very short walk to the park. When I worked in the neighborhood years ago, my office was across the street from the Trade Center and I would frequently head down to the park for lunch.

In nice weather I would plan on getting the tickets for the memorial in advance.
