Why this plan works

The 3 stops cover about 1.5 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Yonkers instead of crossing town between them. LEGOLAND® Discovery Center Westchester is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Starbucks Coffee Company — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to families and families with kids who want a planned Yonkers outing without improvising between stops.
