Citi Bike: E 48 St & 3 Ave
About
Citi Bike stations are the quickest way to hop on two wheels across Midtown’s grid. This one sits at East 48th Street and Third Avenue, right in the thick of office towers and construction sites. The E 48 St & 3 Ave station is one of many dotted through the neighborhood, ready for short rides between blocks.
You’ll find it tucked between Lexington Avenue and Park, steps from the 6 train and the rush of pedestrian traffic on sidewalks. The address is simple: New York, NY 10017, on a block often shadowed by the towering office buildings nearby. There’s no need to wander far—it’s positioned where daily commuters and quick errand-runners overlap.
Bikes come unlocked with a tap at the dock, then swiped back when you reach your stop. Flat-rate rides and day passes make time-based pricing predictable, while the app shows real-time availability for each dock slot. Access options include credit cards, Apple Pay, and Android Pay; for support outside the app, call 800-555-BIKE.
