<P> Often , ticket booths are walk - up windows on the street , or are located inside restaurants and bakeries throughout a given Chinatown community , although it is not uncommon for tickets to be sold on the street directly . Some lines even simply collect cash payment after passengers have boarded the bus . However , tickets are often sold online , either by the bus companies themselves or by portals and print - outs of confirmation emails are used as tickets . Except in Boston , the lines rarely use stations of their own . Passengers are usually directed to wait along a given curbside for the arrival of the bus , although many companies offer waiting areas at or near the pickup points . Several bus stops are also near major hotels and in the parking areas of major Chinese supermarkets . In New York , several bus lines pick up passengers on a stretch of Forsyth Street at the foot of the Manhattan Bridge in the Little Fuzhou neighborhood within Manhattan 's Chinatown . Since 1998 , when the New York City Department of Transportation marked the strip a bus layover area , the sidewalk between Division Street and East Broadway has served as a de facto terminal for the Chinatown buses . </P>
