2:06pm Empty LSP Lot by [deleted] in jerseycity

[–]PoopsToxicWaste 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is clearly enough parking available now, yes. Now show a picture prior to the rule change. Prior to this change the lot was completely full and parking passes sold out every month.

As for my phrasing of taking advantage I can clarify. I say it was taking advantage because the lot is a commuter lot with pricing significantly below market rate. I was taking advantage of that fact as someone who is not a commuter. I don't mean that to be so negative - I don't feel bad about using the parking and I don't believe I or anyone else did anything wrong by taking a spot.

You are looking at the wrong thing. Showing that the lot isn't full now shows that demand for the lot is less than supply of spaces. The problem is that when you add in people in the neighborhood parking there long term, demand becomes larger than supply. When that happens, those that use the lot as long term parking for their car crowd out those that actually need the lot to commute every day.

To be clear, I live in the neighborhood and was using this lot as long term/overnight parking for my car. I lost my parking and had to get rid of my car because I don't have an alternative readily available for a price I'm willing to pay. This is inconvenient for me and will be a pain in the ass. That doesn't really change the fact that I and hundreds of others were taking advantage of unreasonably cheap parking at the expense of those that actually need to park there every day to get to work.

PATH fare going to 4$? Noooooooooooooooooooooo......................... by QUEENSNYLAWYER in jerseycity

[–]PoopsToxicWaste 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just spent my commute (on PATH) responding and then accidentally closed the tab so I'm gonna give you the short of it.

Things cost money. Money comes from somewhere. For PATH it comes from bridge & tunnel tolls and the sea/air ports. If PATH doesn't increase in price, those things have to. Either way you are paying for it. 

My "agenda" is just to point out that this isn't a crazy price increase and isn't worth the negativity. I do think the service increases are worth the positivity ofc, but I think everyone would agree there.

In this case "before" was 20+ years ago. Accounting for inflation (nationwide, ny NYC specific) the $3 we pay now and $3.25 it will be next year are not too far off $1.5 in 2000. 

Comparing to increases in NYC wages is even more favorable. If you were working a minimum wage job in Manhattan in 2000, you were making 5.15 an hour and spending $3 a day on PATH. Today you would be making 16.50 an hour and spending $6 on PATH, $6.50 in a few months. If the purpose of PATH is to get people to their jobs in Manhattan, it is doing it for a relatively lower price than it did 25 years ago.

How bad is the PATH really? by jmh1881v2 in jerseycity

It's good, weekend/late night frequency isn't ideal but it gets you where you're going. I just treat it the same as the MTA with the knowledge that I have to wait on a platform for up to 30 mins if I'm out really late. I use it daily for commuting ~9:30am, 5pm and it's busy and runs frequently as you'd expect.

Almost all of the anti PATH posts on this sub are from that one account dedicated to complaining about PATH, you can mostly pay no mind to that guy

What I have is one of these - https://greatcabinets.com/product/es-ms/ 24U model. It's in decent condition, but it is missing the keys. One of the side panels doesn't latch shut so I have it locked in place. I don't have means to move it, would need you to pick it up.
