on a summer night, particularly if it is a wkend, probably. Lots of people out. The subway will be crowded even at that hour. I took the subway home from times square the other night to the UWS from Times Square. It was packed, even on a week night. [ Reply | More ]

Depends on how savvy the 15 year old is? If she's used to traveling alone say to school etc - yes. Maybe meet her at the subway closest to your home and then walk with her? Some of the west village gets dark and secluded at night. [ Reply | More ]

maybe... it's just a couple of stops on a subway line that is usually busy. Depends on her maturity and judgment and resources to handle unusual events. [ Reply | More ]

I used to take the subway at all hours of the night at that age, but I was usually with a group of friends. I do not think I would allow her alone [ Reply | More ]
