Did this exact commute for a year and it was ~35-40 minutes each way. There’s rarely much traffic before you get within ~5 miles of the city, then it’s stop and go. Traffic was a little worse in the afternoons compared to the mornings, but it was pretty consistent in terms of the amount of traffic day in and day out.

I'm gonna disagree with this a bit. There's rarely much traffic until you hit within 5 miles of the city going in. Coming out, it can be a nightmare along 95 at any point. Typically, there will be stop-and-go traffic for a bit, then you're going, then there's another slowdown. My morning commute was typically before the rush, and that rarely took 30 minutes to around Penn Station. Coming back was 40 minutes minimum, and sometimes up to an hour. It may be better post-COVID.
