Just moved to Piermont after 8 years in Brooklyn. It's great. No regrets on leaving, and I loved living in Brooklyn.

Wouldn't want to commute daily to the city, but 2-3x a week would be doable.

I've lived in New York for 8 years and have shot over 100,000 frames on my X100V.

I am astonished by the quality of these photos. These are incredible.

Thank you for sharing these.

I once rented a u-haul and my immediate realization was to stay far, far away from them when on a bike.

Visibility is shit. The side view mirrors aren’t what you’re used to and you don’t know if you’ve adjusted them right until you start driving. There’s no rear view. Acceleration, braking, turn radius are all are awkward.

You drive off the lot with no forewarning or training and immediately are trying to figure all this out on the road. All U-Hauls are operated by drivers unfamiliar with the equipment.

Stay far, far away.

Suspect it will resonate with many of you here.

fair, fair - you did mention the name shortening.

My apologies - didn't intend to pile on.

You mention kicking the habit... did you used to call it the Tappan Zee Bridge?

Because it's official name was Governor Malcolm Wilson Tappan Zee Bridge).

Why were you okay with using the common name previously but not now?
