I am planning on attending this event. I am coming from Stamford, CT. What is the easiest / suggested way to get from Grand Central Station in Manhattan to the BBG Lightscape location ?
is the botanic area and the area around the botanic garden safe?

The area around the park is very safe. I would not want to be walking around any area of Brooklyn after 11:00pm but during the morning, day and early evening it is very safe and the area is very busy because of both the gardens and the Brooklyn Museum. Add Prospect Park too this time of year and there are people all over so you should be fine. Check out the nice restaurants down Washington Avenue too. You have some great choices.

I'm just a tad confused on how I should proceed, and wondered if anyone else has been in this situation, and how you handled it.

If anyone has gone recently, kindly tell me if it makes a difference as to which entrance you use. I'm driving so it doesn't really matter which is closest to subway :) Thanks!

There is no difference in the three entrances to the Gardens. It just depends on what direction you are coming in. When you order the tickets online for what time you will be coming to …
There is no difference in the three entrances to the Gardens. It just depends on what direction you are coming in. When you order the tickets online for what time you will be coming to the park, they will assign the time with the entrance you will be coming in on.
