I come from eastern LI. I often take the AirTrain to JFK from LIRR Jamaica. How can I get to LaGuardia from Jamaica?

On the latest issue of Time Out you refers to the "West Village". There is no West Village as there is no East Village. There is only a Greenwich Village and a Lower East Side. The name East Village is an invention of the realestate industry.
