Early estimate of property destruction. When you ask where, they can't answer. If they already have addresses for Ridgewood historic district locations that will be affected, they can provide the rest
I’d like to know what is meant by “partial acquisition” of private property and, by law, what is the minimum distance mandate between someone’s home and the actual train tracks. Might some people have trains running 20 feet from their homes???
How can the acquire cemeteries?
Parcels in the cemetery as well
Unbelievable!
Mamdani will be elected for the same reason Trump was elected. Namely, promising the world to ignorant voters who don't have the discretion to know that smoke is being blown up their lower orifice.
Thank you for all the information you’ve been actively posting about this everyday. This whole thing will be a debacle for anyone who has grown up in Middle Village and trying to raise the next generation of their family here.
Wake up New York let me tell you why this happened (mamdami), INDOCTRINATED COLLEGE TRANSPLANTS! These jerkoffs are the only ones that go out and vote! You lazy self absorbed New Yorkers just sit home and do not vote! By claiming "I do not like anybody so screw it" is a massive problem across the country! This is how things like this happens! Look at the numbers, less then 10% of New Yorkers vote in a city of nearly 9 million! Reep what you sow! GENTRIFICATION IS THE DOWNFALL OF NYC! And crooked politicians love it and cator to them for votes to keep themselves in power!
"Let's destroy the Ridgewood Historic District so we can get to Brownsville faster!" said no one, ever.
They did say we can now get to the number 7, LIRR in Woodside, and to parts of Brooklyn that don't require 2-3 trains, going thru Manhattan.
This says it's an impact analysis, so not a design plan necessarily. Maybe provide the link to the entire document so people can see this paragraph in its full context.
Wrote a blank check to the MTA whydon'tya?
Did they just name some of the addresses they are going to seize under eminent domain?
I can’t find the full article, may someone please post the link. Thank you.
That's great
Freight tracks by Wilson L train and cypress Seneca to 68 Park you'll see them starting construction 🚧🏗️ for this new train crap
They've already destroyed most of the city with their "improvements" so this is inevitable
Good... only mention Brownsville and not the other parts of Brooklyn that would be accessible. Let's stoke some racial fears to get what we want, instead of having a rational conversation on this proposal.
Say no to the INTERBORO GRANIMAL EXPRESS TRAIN
"Depending on how significantly land use is altered around the train line, the report estimates that over 100,000 units might be built over a decade."

The Interborough Express, a rail line connecting Brooklyn and Queens, could spur the building of tens of thousands of homes. Obstacles await.The IBX has been a concern since 2022. This was published before the details came out about how it would directly impact us.

April 20, 2022 By Allie Griffin A half-dozen Queens legislators are calling on the state to ensure that a proposed commuter rail link between Queens and Brooklyn doesn’t overburden the neighborhoods...Fight fight fight
Good luck with that
Keep up the good fight

Here's a thought let's ask Trump to help us out don't forget he was from Queens
keep our neighborhoods!!!!!!
We have been looking out for these neighborhoods since 1938. We are a large part of why they are still livable. We are giving you a head’s up about what is proposed for our area by our government. If
Exactly, never give up, never give in. I remember when they wanted to widen Eliot Avenue for truck traffic. Turn Met Food in a Chinese school. All of those beautiful old homes torn down for multifamily homes. We don’t need a train to bring more people in. Leave our neighborhood alone.
Appreciate it. What do we need to do?
Juniper Park Civic association, thank you.
Thank you for all you do!
Thank you for all of your hard work and all that you do to protect our neighborhood.
Thank you… I probably missed it but is there a date that this is aimed to be completed and up and running?
Appreciate any info you can pass our way.
Thank you for all you do.
When is the n county meeting
When's the next meeting, if there's one ?
Thank you. You've 100 percent correct. This is a ploy to change the neighborhood. So many people are not grasping this.
This election is very very important and people need to wake up and educate themselves and vote right
Thank you!
Not our government
This is the MTA. More neighborhoods that they are displacing people. 90 days notice. Pay attention people.... nypost.com/2025/08/18/us-news/dozens-of-new-yorkers-at-risk-of-eviction-as-mta-makes-way-for-seco...
This is the government you disgusting liberal New Yorkers keep voting for! You deserve everything you get!!! Now vote for Mandani it won’t surprise me if he becomes the next mayor!
