The best commute I ever had was a 45m walk from the upper east side of Manhattan to midtown, through Central Park. I did it every day for two years in all weathers. What a wonderful way to see change each day, mark the seasons, feel connected to something approaching nature, and to gear up for and wind down from work. It isn't strictly productive but it is incredibly good for mental health.
