Thank you, Brooklyn! Getting to represent the neighborhoods that raised me is the greatest privilege of my life.

At today's NYC Council hearing on universal daylighting, CM Julie Won questions DOT's study data, which claims that it's not effective everywhere. She says the agency already had its conclusion set and worked backwards from there.

Trump Moves to Kill Congestion Pricing. The MTA Is Suing to Save It [Updated] The Feds have pulled their approval for the tolling plan. Supporters of congestion pricing say that doesn't matter.

UPDATE: In an uncharacteristically fiery press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Governor Kathy Hochul defended congestion pricing. New York's commuters, she said, will not be "the roadkill on President Trump's revenge tour against New York."

Not to mention the involvement of pro housing abundance groups that spent hours testifying, collecting signatures and canvassing! An enormous collective effort, the Housing not Hire rises people really tried to block this. Apparently 10 stories is a high rise lol

I’ve come to think that people who are anti monorepo is due to bad, out of the box tooling. When you have good tooling it really is a dream as a run of the mill developer.

Why Vikram Oberoi Is Every NYC Journalist's Favorite New Yorker His project, citymeetings.nyc, transcribes and summarizes *every* *single* City Council meeting.

2024 in Review: The Year Congestion Pricing Almost Finally Happened (Again) - Streetsblog New York City Kathy Hochul threw the MTA into chaos and may have handed the future of New York City's transit system to Donald Trump.

T-minus 6 days until the launch of congestion pricing & I still couldn't tell you if it'll actually happen. Several potential judicial obstructions remain unsettled.

In the meantime, read my review of the year congestion pricing *almost* happened, again, 2024: nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/12/30/2...

It’s been tragic walking by places that used to have 3-4 tables (always with people using them) and now… a single car.

Holden, the sponsor of Intro 606, has headphones in and scrolling his phone while people testify against 606.

$19 million initial cost for attempting to implement Intro 606 (licensing e-bikes). Legislation that has been shown to be ineffective in curbing pedestrian injuries in every city it’s been passed in, and has been repealed. Vickie Paladino and Robert Holden and want to throw away $19 million.

At the council meeting public hearing for Intro 606, I watched one of the guards walk up to one of the disruptive bike banners, shake his hand and say β€œglad to see a friendly face”. Curious that after being asked to remove disruptive people, nobody was removed.

This was crazy to witness. Just so transparent they care about cars over actual people.

Want Parking? Kiss Goodbye Half of the Projected Housing in 'City Of Yes' - Streetsblog New York City Analysis: Modifications the mayor's City of Yes housing plan will result in less housing, experts say.

City of Yes is up for a vote on Thursday. If the City Council doesn't remove parking mandates citywide, and instead only gets rid of them near transit, the projected unit production gets cut in half. nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/11/07/w...
