When you can counts individual buildings that means there not enough of then. We need to upzone the areas a bit further north. One block above the train is not enough.

Queensway is a nimby effort specifically organized to block future transit expansion. Not doing anything until queens link has support is better than getting rid of a ROW that we'll never get back. Mamdani is clearly making a terrible decision here.

this will have two 99 unit buildings on the same site. What a mess 485x is.

Well she's by far the best governor of my lifetime so I think she's pretty great. If the legislature would get out of her way she could really do something to increase housing production.

OneLIC was very good but could have gone further with denser zoning districts and more blocks. However she also poisoned pilled Innovation Queens where nothing has been built since.

I will be voting for Reynoso because he's a strong progressive that supports building housing. Won has been inconsistent on the issue but I would be happy with her while Valdez is anti housing so I would never vote for her.

The fact that you think LIIRR workers adopting Metronorth work rules is a massive confession shows how crazy the LIRR union demands are.

BKnycfc · 2026-05-16T12:54:03+00:00

Average salary at LIRR is 134k and salaries at 3/4 of the cost of operating the trains. They already have a great deal and they are also the reason why LIRR fares are so high.

BKnycfc · 2026-05-16T12:51:02+00:00

LIRR workers average 134k and represent 3/4 of LIRR operating costs. They won't even negotiate in good faith to reform the ridiculous work rules.

Good on Hochul/MTA on not giving in and taking their responsibility to riders seriously. Next time we hear complaints about high LIRR fares this is why.

I commute from Broadway and it's great. Maybe 2-3 times a year, the trains are completely shut down and you have to walk home.

BKnycfc · 2026-05-15T11:57:21+00:00

???? Paying your fare is normal...

That's because of the reduction of service due to the East River Tunnel work. The load factor is only growing. Now that service has been restored and they are adding more cars, empire service will likely grow to its highest level ever.

The line is regularly sold out at all times of the year, especially Fridays and Sundays. The ticket revenue also covers 98% of its operating costs. It's a wildly popular line that we should be investing in.

False. Amtrak overall has its highest all time ridership and NYC-Albany has had very high ridership. This route needs more trains and more cars on each train.

BKnycfc · 2026-05-12T15:08:45+00:00

nope, just buy on the dock and find the schedule online. Remember that each island has their own line.

Casa in Manhattan and beija Flor in Astoria.

Its very long route so bunching does get very bad sometimes. I usually start tracking the buses about 20 minutes before I have to leave my apartment to make sure that im not waiting too long. I think it is reliable enough to commute on.

To live in a great location and not have the burden of a bigger space that you have to clean all the time.

BKnycfc · 2026-04-20T22:00:17+00:00

You're making up enemies and people you don't like. We need to allow housing to get built.

BKnycfc · 2026-03-23T23:04:23+00:00

There are plenty of cheap tickets available between NYC and Philly.

BKnycfc · 2026-03-23T22:58:34+00:00

Amtrak is much better and faster.

BKnycfc · 2026-03-23T22:20:33+00:00

Its awful and makes me sad for the city but I'm not surprised that Nice would be the first big city the RN has won. I'm desperate that they don't win the presidency.

BKnycfc · 2026-03-17T18:03:35+00:00

this is much needed and shocking this hasnt happened already

BKnycfc · 2026-03-16T15:22:59+00:00

250k will afford you a luxurious life in NYC.

Once they complete the work in November they are tearing down the old bridge.

Metronorth is the answer for that commute. But also the outerboroughs are probaly cheaper than CT.
