The new Queensboro walkway could be washed, it is really grimy. delaying it for a few years wasn't enough time. @nycdot.bsky.social should add more signage in the neighborhood to help people find the entrance. Massive upgrade to the cycling and walking experience, major upgrade to the bridge

If it were me and I admittedly mistakenly deported someone to a foreign prison camp I would work to get them back regardless of whether a judge ordered me to. I guess I’m just built different.

This was such a satisfying project, and one in which I realized for the first time how much my whole life had been spent in a manscape, in places where almost everything was named after men.
#WomensHistoryMonth: The City of Women Map is a fascinating visualization of women’s history and urban transportation. Created by Molly Roy, Rebecca Solnit, and Joshua Jelly-Schapiro, the map renames subway stops after notable women with links to that area, offering an entirely new way to view #NYC.
