What I like is that on NYC side from the North walk way, you are in the bike path in with in a few city blocks, versus almost 20 city blocks on south side of the GW Bridge. You are in traffic much less, that should count for a plus.
Not quite sure what you're referring to regarding the 20 blocks to the greenway from the south walkway; the north walkway leaves you on 179th and Pinehurst as opposed to the south walkway which leaves you on 178th and Haven. I agree that the north walkway makes it easier to access the greenway at 181st and Riverside, but getting to the greenway from 178th and Haven isn't a problem at all.
