Incoming FT Analyst – Best place to live if office in Hudson Yards?

Curious to hear what other people did that also have a office in Hudson Yards (right by the Vessel). I was thinking Murray Hill but live near 34th street and use the M34 bus line to get to Hudson Yards but wanted to hear if the buses suck or not. I had a friend do this but he was an SA and curious if this is viable for FT.

Second option is maybe Hell's Kitchen and just walk but IDK if this would suck in the summer months. Looking at these two neighborhoods because of price but leaning Murray Hill b/c Hell's Kitchen is boring asf I have heard.

You’ll be fine either way. Super easy walk from HK to HY, doesn’t really matter which season.

The city buses are generally reliable and you can take subway if needed (uptown 6 then switch to 7).
