Contact, Directions & Accessibility
The
Retiree Division's entrance is located at 97 Hudson Street in Lower
Manhattan. We are in the building of 6 Harrison Street, home of Local 1180 and the Benefits offices. See below for turn-by-turn
directions from your home. Be sure to check if you are traveling by
public transportation or by car.
Wheelchairs
The
Retiree Division is accessible to wheelchair users and other visitors
who need to avoid stairs. Accessible entrances are located at 6 Harrison
Street, New York, NY 10013.
There
is an elevator in the building that can access the 3rd floor where the
Security Benefits office and computer classes are located, as well as
the lower level of the Retiree Division where workshops, classes, and
special events take place. The first floor/Office of the Retiree Division
is not accessible by elevator but is on street level for easy
access.
Most of our trips are on buses and unfortunately are not accessible. Please call 212.226.5800 for more information.
Personal Aides and Helpers
The Retiree Division welcomes those who come to assist members who need a little extra help. As a rule, the Division allows one person to come as an assistant. The Retiree Division will regard this helper as ‘a guest’ of the member. In the event that there is a fee associated with the event, it is expected that the member will cover all related expenses. Additionally, it is expected that helpers abide by all of the rules and regulations of the Retiree Division and to conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times. The member is ultimately responsible for the behavior of this guest. The Retiree Division does not employ any staff member in this capacity. In the event that any special needs are necessary, it is expected that members will make their own personal arrangements.
Parking
A parking lot is located across the street from the Retiree Division.
Trips and Events
The Retiree Division provides programs and events for retirees of varying skills and abilities. Whenever possible, trips will be arranged with the highest level of accessibility. Read the details of each event and call if you require more information to determine if the event meets your comfort level of activity.
