The New York City Department of Sanitation announced that there would be no trash, curbside composting, or recycling collection on Independence Day, Saturday, July 4, 2026.
The MTA has not approached ANY property owner to acquire land for the IBX. They are still in the environmental review stage. The draft report is expected to be released by the end of the year, then there will be hearings focused on the findings. The report will explain which properties would need to be acquired to facilitate construction.
There is currently NO money for the project past the design phase. Property acquisition comes much later. Please stop posting rumors. They harm the community and local businesses. ... See MoreSee Less

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s transportation boss all but declared war on drivers during an event Thursday — claiming that mostly rich people in NYC own cars.
it’s true, though. with how expensive car ownership is in NY it is a luxury reserved for leafy suburb homeowners that are far out of step with (and far wealthier than) the average transit-riding renter.
There are to many cars on the road . If you ever notice on westbound LIE traffic there is 1 person per car . There should be some balance on the road . During the 1920-30s you could not park on NYC streets and had to park in lots . Its a car dominant transportation system that was created by Robert Moses . Maybe some more access to public transportation can balance out the way people travel .

So he should step down and let someone that understands the needs of new yorkers in
Going by car to midtown from Maspeth is usually little more than 15 minutes. By bus & subway, an hour, more if the Q67 doesn't show up at the half-hour time, as commonly happens.
And what about the disabled who can't use public transportation, the elderly who don't live near any stops, the parents with young kids that need to go to doctors or non local schools, people going shopping for big items, etc etc.
This guy better not own a car and he better travel around the city by public transportation.
He should go fuck himself in plain English. And mandani too
