Penn Station is down on 33rd Street, and assuming you were driving west (exiting the Midtown Tunnel) you probably didn't pass that, but you may have passed the Port Authority. When you were on 8th Avenue, you were on the edge of "Hell's Kitchen". If you were at 53rd St. and 8th Avenue, you were only two blocks away from the real-life "Soup Nazi" (a character from the tv show "Seinfeld").
