🚆 The Interborough Express could turn 14 miles of freight tracks into NYC’s next real estate frontier—linking Brooklyn & Queens, unlocking 100K+ homes, and revitalizing neglected corridors. A bold vision for growth beyond Manhattan. 🔗 t.ly/1Ia4L #InterboroughExpress #CityOfYes #SmartGrowth

I'm just finding out that my sister is going to have a 1 hour 45 minute commute to her college of choice.

The #InterboroughExpress and #QueensBusRedesign would've helped out a bit.
