There is no difference between the two. They are just used to identify roads and to give a unique sense to them. It does not matter on the length of the road like some think.

How do you walk from NYC Penn station to Bryant park NYC?

It's pretty straightforward. Penn Station is at 33rd to 34th Streets, between 7th and 8th Avenues. Depending on whether you use the east exit (7th Avenue) or the west exit (8th Avenue), you'll exit on 7th or 8th Avenues, at 33rd or 34th Streets. Turn right and walk east to 6th Avenue (1 - 2 blocks, not counting Broadway, which cuts between avenues). Then turn left and walk north from West 34th to West 40th. Bryant Park stretches from 40th to 42nd Streets, between 6th and 5th Avenues.
