Linco Printing

Take the 7 train to the Hunters Point Avenue station. It’s the second stop in Queens coming from Grand Central Station. (Please check New York City Transit Service Advisory for the 7 line before you take the subway.)

Both exits from the Hunters Point Avenue station will lead you to Hunters Point Avenue or 49th Avenue. If you look down the street west, you should be able to see the top of the Empire State Building. Walk along the sidewalk towards the Empire State Building until you reach the corner of the block at 49th Avenue and 21st Street, where M. Wells Diner is. Make a left and walk across 49th Avenue towards the mailbox.

You should see three “Do Not Enter” signs, one on a pole and two overhead on the ramp to the Midtown Tunnel . (Don’t worry about the signs, they’re for cars.) There’s a path past the Do Not Enter sign on the pole that leads underneath the Midtown Tunnel ramp to stairs for a foot bridge that goes over the Long Island Rail Road tracks.

51st Avenue is at the bottom of the stairs of the foot bridge. Go left and follow 51st Avenue until you reach 23rd Street. You’ll know you’ve reached 23rd Street when you see the Metro Group building. Make a left. The entrance to Linco is directly across from Metro Group. Take the stairs to the 2nd floor. At the top of the stairs, take the door on the left for sales, accounting, and pre-prepress.
