i see we have one of the pedocons here to speak for themselves!

It all sounds good but the man is the king of all talk no walk. Don’t give him credit for announcing plans. Wait to see results.

Giant is Stop and Shop btw, they just kept the regional name.

has market ever been anything but dead at night?

area man terrified of his own shadow because the news told him to be. wont go out in the sunlight to see it and find out for himself if it’s dangerous or not.

so we’d have to rip up the parking lot? doesn’t seem that hard

yeah we always called it downtown

no one needs more than one car. why are we even giving out permits for multiple cars per person? if you want more cars, find a private place to store them

they should be based on the income of the owner - value of car could be a decent proxy. not a bad idea

what does this mean, when you peel back the snark and articulate your actual opinion on this? do you think it makes sense to have a law just for certain types of property owners about snow removal? why?

nah, i'm gonna let the air out of your tires, even if i have to buy you tires first.

hope someone lets all the air out of your tires

report him to 311 repeatedly with the details of both plates. it sometimes works.

yeah the nypd is such a sensitive and woke organization that they’re not doing their jobs out of concern for the poor and POC lol

there is a huge reason and it’s that the MTA doesn’t have in-house resources to keep it running. It’s not like they built this from the ground up, it’s using other companies’ software which they don’t support anymore.

I can’t believe that you’re an engineer who doesn’t get this.

But I can believe you’re an engineer who would be incredibly pedantic about “can’t” versus “unable to in any practical sense.”

Which bank do you work for?

i dont love when cars “flow” into me without looking, it’s kind of deadly. drivers don’t know they’re supposed to yield

traffic is always bad. eliminating half of it by cutting the number of general purpose lanes is a huge benefit for everyone except drivers, who will always be miserable anyway.

they didn’t do this well when they were well staffed

yeah some people will complain about our incredibly unsafe streets and complete lack of desire to make them safer, how absolutely weird!

that ship has long sailed

That said, they did in effect paint a parking spot. It's crazy that there can be weeks-long gaps between milling, paving, painting lines, painting colors, and adding in flex posts and stuff. Absolutely terrible project management and they don't care to improve.

They absolutely can widen sidewalks (in many cases the current sidewalks are far narrower than they used to be.) Plenty of streets way narrower than this. FDNY’s guidance isn’t based on anything but being too lazy to analyze in detail any real potential problems and taking the shortcut of “the status quo needs to stay the same”.

The intent with all painted sidewalk space is that it’s a footprint for future capital projects to build in concrete with a curb. The city just doesn’t have the money to do it because pouring a little concrete costs a billion dollars here thanks to corruption and graft.

that’s on 32nd and it’s terribly designed, they sectioned it off with planters so it looks like you’re not supposed to go into it.

lol by 2030 thanks

Just absolutely embarrassing behavior from these elected officials. Compromising affordable housing construction because literally a couple handfuls of people complained.

Garbage.
