- “You have a right to buy as many cars as you’d like, but with that comes the responsibility and burden of finding parking…NYC is doing people who drive a favor by allowing them to park on the street for free.”👊@BKBPReynoso during a community forum organized by @ReneeCollymore
00:00 - Since I was the victim of a bike crash where the person who rammed into me left without leaving his name or contact information, I feel it’s even more relevant when I say this: the real problem is cars.
- I was the victim of a hit and run in Prospect Park. This cyclist, Kevin, crashed hard into me from behind on the hill in Prospect Park. I asked for his info multiple times. His friends he was racing with told him to leave and then he did while I was trying to file a police report
- New York City’s streets and sidewalks make up our largest public space. But more than 75 percent of that space is devoted to driving and free storage for cars — even though a minority of New Yorkers own a car. Containerize trash in the street. #nyc25x25 nyc25x25.org
- Atlanta, where I grew up, doesn’t have it all, but it does have a subway that goes straight to the airport like most major cities in the world. Goes right into the main terminal. Unbelievable that you can’t hop on a train and get to the airport with your subway fare in NYC.
- My daughter after school today…there’s no reason for this vehicle to exist in Brooklyn or anywhere else.
- Hear this Trump supporter threatening physical violence. He’s been here for 50 minutes. @nypd said they are aware of the threats and “that is why we’re here.” Threats at polling sites at ok, as long as it’s 100 feet away from polling site entrance? @BOENYC @bradlander
00:00 - While people are here, register on the NYC street tree map and log the care of our street trees.
- 👏👏👏 Yes, let it come to a vote! It was great to see @MTA voting board member Midori Valdivia at today’s emergency rally in support of congestion pricing at Governor Hochul’s office. This is not over!
