Once again, I have to ask:

Are @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social unaware of the blatant corruption in their Party backyard, or are they in on the take?

The plans are coming off the shelf. Let's go!

DocsFlow does a 2-way sync to Google Docs. Not sure how it will handle footnotes

Maybe this makes Union St a bit less of a traffic sewer too

Even before CP, didn't the Brooklyn-bound side have less of a peaky demand?

Is Linden Blvd NYC's new 'Boulevard of Death?' 9 dead in crashes on street since 2021. The 6-mile stretch of Linden Boulevard between Flatbush and Ozone Park is one of the most dangerous in the city, data shows.

If the study that CM Banks is calling for suggests reducing parking, will he oppose it on the same grounds he did for universal daylighting?

Brooklyn deserves better.

At the same time, electric vehicles were almost 1/3 of the cars on the (bumpy dirt) roads, and electrified interurban railways connected almost every town of size in the state.

The paths not taken....

Too bad the NY State liquor store cartel keeps it away from us...

Subway expansions would be truly transformative for the city, and must happen.

(not a fan of framing this as an either/or with free buses, but that's something else)

Kudos to the team for a beautiful presentation too!

Way back in the day in Paris, there was vertical stratification (richer people lived on the lower floors, working-class lived in the garrets.)

I knew Dan way, way back when we were both student journalists at Penn. He was a rare bit of Philly realness on campus, and if it weren't for him, I never would've seen the Insectarium.

Remembering the late nights when 34th St went to press, and sending condolences to his family and loved ones.

To @governor.ny.gov's big $ donors, pain and suffering from car crashes is just a part of doing business they want to spend less on.

Billionaire-owned apps should pay for the damage they cause, not crash victims.

I first saw @kylec.bsky.social with his epic take in support of a Denver bike lane. Never thought i would hear that from a local news anchor’s desk!

Glad to see he is keeping up the great work. (and that bike lanes are a remarkable proxy for politics)

'Pedestrianize' the Financial District, Lower Manhattan Council Member Says - Streetsblog New York City Downtown Council Member Chris Marte says the city refuses to launch a $500K downtown pedestrianization study funded by his predecessor.

In terms of transportation, Marte has come out in favor of pedestrianizing the Financial District

Also a missed opportunity to build out the painted bulb-out in concrete...

Fish, family, and freedom

absolute banger of a slogan

Sometime in the next few years, it will look like this: www.nyc.gov/assets/ddc/d...

Years ago, I was told that it's a security wall, so it goes down way deeper than you might think.

The redesign, for reference:

It will be a big improvement at the bridge entrance, but a big missed opportunity to have protected lanes all the way to Chrystie St.

1979 ad for the Bowery Savings Bank with the headline "This city wasn't built by frightened people. And frightened people won't save it" - Joe DiMaggio for The Bowery

Doing some research for a new candidate client, and came across this remarkable ad from 1978.

Why *do* the people with the least faith in New York
have the loudest voices?

It's not like this wasn't all crystal-clear in 2022!!

See how the snow turns gray?

That’s what‘s happening in your lungs…
