Not to mention other variances or discounts to things like, say motorcycles. But I guess according to MTA logic, a motorcycle that takes up 1/6th the space of a car generates the same congestion, so it should therefore pay the same 10-20 dollars as a large car or SUV.

Seems like a total crock of shit, of you ask me...

Nothing is wrong with that but it just isn’t working there, and I don’t necessarily mean architecturally. Historically, that area has always kind of struggled to find an identity, and clearly still is. But that said, they’ve done a fantastic job restoring where Moynihan station is and hopefully they continue in that direction, instead of just building more… office buildings.

The problem with that area is that after people are done commuting in and out of work it turns into an actual unsafe and bad place to be.
