Officially, Morayta is now Nicanor Reyes Street. But the exact location of PRC is only approximately 50 meters from Espana Boulevard, the main thoroughfare in Manila where most of public buses and jeepneys from far distant locations in Metro Manila pass through.

Here's how to commute to PRC from different parts of Metro Manila:

Route #1

From Alabang, Pacita, Metropolis Starmall, Filinvest City, Festival Mall, Sucat, Bicutan, nearby areas, and Southern Tagalog provinces of Batangas, Laguna and Quezon. Ride a bus or FX with "Lawton" or "Santa Cruz" sign. Get off at Lawton.

In Lawton, ride a jeep with any of these signs: "Quiapo Espana", "Cubao Espana", "Project 6", "Project 2-3" and "Fairview". You can ride a jeepney going to these routes along the road that borders Metropolitan Theater or the road near to Park and Ride Lawton.

Ask the driver to drop you off at Morayta now known as Nicaror Reyes. Nicanor Reyes aka Morayta is the first junction with traffic lights after the jeepney passes through Quezon Avenue Lerma Underpass.

Photos immediately below are taken from Nicanor Reyes formerly Morayta corner Lerma towards the opposite side. Lerma is the road before Espana Boulevard, where you'd get off. These are what you're going to see before you get to PRC:

Landmarks here are: Chowking, Mang Inasal and Greenwich Pizza. See the map below. The first red placemark is where you get off. From there, follow the red line and walk on Morayta which is now Nicanor Reyes Street. Turn left immediately on the street that borders Greenwich Pizza. That street is P. Paredes Street.

As you can see in the map, PRC is to the left of Paredes, just a few meters from the corner of Morayta and Paredes.

Tip: You're using mobile. Touch the map with TWO fingers and drag it downward to see the first placemark or pin (red.) Pinch the map 2 to 4 times until you can see LRT Recto. At that zoom level, you'll get an idea about the location. Drag the map anywhere you want. Zoom in again by 'pinch-out' gesture.

Route #2

Option 1 - Ride an LRT-2 train bound for Recto, the last station in the other end. You can take a train in Araneta Center Cubao Station. Important: Make sure you're in LRT-2 and not in MRT-3 as both lines have the same names of their stations. To avoid confusion, remember that MRT-3 is in EDSA while LRT-2 is in Aurora Blvd, and LRT-2 Araneta Center Cubao Station is connected to Gateway Mall. This direction is also the best route to take if your point of origin is along the path of LRT-2, e.g. Santolan, Katipunan, Anonas, Betty Go Belmonte, Gimore, V.

Option 2 - In Aurora Boulevard where Araneta Center Station and Anonas Station of LRT-2 are located, ride a jeepney with "Quiapo" sign. If you're from area near Anonas Station like Project 4, you need to get to the part of Aurora Boulevard near Araneta Center Cubao Station of LRT-2 because the jeepneys going to Quiapo only pass through here.
