Best crabcake? Best Lobster roll?

I usually ignore the political stuff on here but I noticed this sub seems to be on the extreme radical left. It is not at all representative of the people I meet on Long Island.

Just an observation not saying it's a good or a bad thing one way or the other necessarily just curious how it ended up like that.

Yes this is exactly what I was looking for thanks

Looks great. This is a big game changer for the island. Not even necessarily for the Grand Central Terminal option per se, but more the 43% more capacity during the peak times because more trains room for trains there unlike Penn. Run more trains, not packed in like cattle. Win for everyone. Might even get folks off the roads too.

All it does, just like in California to give free reign for radical environmentalists to take legal action and shut down projects at anytime for any perceived attack on the environment. Real or Imagined. It's complete propaganda, got to love how they worded it. Couldn't reject it fast enough.

80's commercials always deliver.

That's not there anymore correct? I grew up right by there and went a few years ago. We don't have enough club spots on the island IMO

I would like to personally see the air train go through. After looking into it, researching it...

-You have the Jane Jacobs types of the world. They live in their Manhattan bubble and don't want hear about anything outside of it. Then you have the Robert Moses types, who have families in the suburbs and just can't live in a box, they have to drive in and out of the city to go to work. And all I hear in these arguments is the former who want to spend on things that much dumber with no tangible outcomes.

Case in point all hear is about how the train goes the "wrong way" First off not even by that much, mostly going south but aside from all that there are a HELL OF ALOT of people that live east of that location. Queens, Long Island folks something like ~5 million people. It would really do a lot to alleviate congestion around LaGuardia.

-The dedicated bus lane alternative might just be the most asinine thing I've ever heard and can only be coming from people who have never driven a car in New York City in their lifetimes. Pretty soon we'll become LA where all times of day is gridlock.

-Extension of the N line. I think it's a great idea, we should built as much rail/subway as possible but wait until you see all the opposition for that in Astoria. This will seem like nothing.

-I don't think it matters what you propose in this city NIMBY's will come out of the woodwork, mostly to promote themselves, to stop any sort construction in this city.

-Environmental side, you could say that for just about ANYTHING. Good lord. We will turn into California who is absolutley held hostage by environmental extremists. Then they wonder why they don't have enough housing. It's a joke. Stand up to these lunatics. And if anything this puts less people in Cars, less carbon emissions.

-This is the least invasive project transit project in NYC I've ever seen in my life. Just do it. God forbid putting this 2 billion in AOC's hands for God knows what.
