I can only do that because I have passed through that building easily a couple hundred times. I far prefer Grand Central, or 54 Canal St. The Chinatown busses never pass through that mess. New York, however, easily has a more user-friendly subway system than Boston's. Firstly the maps show the terrain around them. Secondly, the stations are mostly (if not entirely) named after streets, whereas Boston names it's stops after anything but.

The passengers stand huddled in endlessly long unmoving lines and tempers flair easily. The staff is mostly slow or indifferent in controlling the mass confusion. You could be waiting for hours at the right gate to go to Pittsburgh only to find out when you reached the gate door that the line had been split into two gates and you are in the wrong one. And of course the ususal shameless line crashers are legendal. The Grayhound station in New York City is a colorful and bleack third world experience.

I look forward to my commute home via Grand Central via the 43rd st entrance though. It's so serene at 1 am. Great story.
