“from downtown New York City to the West Side”

$50 is what you’d expect if you lived in nyc, or been there enough

Not from the area, what’s the deal/context?

I’m assuming it’s a traffic cluster fuck?

It’s one of the densest, most populated 2.9 miles in the world. The route takes you through the core of manhattan/nyc.
