@NYC_DOT @nick_benson Again, this is an A/B question when the should be a C option of No Thanks! How about securing our streets instead of securing the bikes. Secure streets with bike racks are far more efficient!

Need secure bike parking? Tell us where! 🚴 We’re planning a network of 500 locations and want your input. nycdotprojects.info/SecureBikePark…

Great to be involved with @East86th . Nice to see things getting spruced up in our heavy traffic corridor. Love the plants! Some beauties!

@LeVeauNY @TransAlt @bfurnas A paid Transalt employee was counted among the 4 along with a crazy homeless guy who called himself "the king" as he rode his bike with two attached wagons through the crowd repeatedly.

@TransAlt @bfurnas Nice that a minor is one of the 4 people in support of this tomfoolery. So in reality, it’s 3.

After a protected bike lane is installed, fewer people are killed and injured while biking, walking, and driving. In New York City, we've seen that traffic deaths and serious injuries decline by: 18% for everyone 29% for pedestrians 39% for senior pedestrians

@TransAlt Gee. Why didn't they use the picture of the people opposed to the wildly unpopular redesign?

@UWS_Parent @katiewr31413491 @BasicallySusan @queens_parents DOT does whatever they want.

@katiewr31413491 @BasicallySusan @queens_parents Nobody wanted the bus lane on 96th street either. I only heard concern, especially for people who had physical disabilities. Not clear who is calling the shots in NYC, but they don't seem to feel accountable to voters.

The community came out in the hundreds to oppose the Trans Alt-DOT proposed 2-way bike freeway on 72 Street that will endanger pedestrians, children, seniors and the disabled. Local businesses know that their ability to run their businesses will be greatly affected as they will not be able to receive hundreds of deliveries that come everyday. E-bike injuries in 2025 doubled over 2024. E-bikes are unregulated, and riders are unlicensed and uninsured. Yet the DOT doesn’t really care. Lyft, DoorDash, Uber Eats, Citibike are in the driver’s seat! @GaleBrewerNYC How irresponsible this rogue DOT is! @AFineBlogger @infopobn @KathyHochul @KathyHochul @infopobn @Mike94663851870 @nyc_evsa @JeniferRajkumar @BobHoldenNYC @MicahLasher @AlexBores @bradhoylman @Shebbie4nyc

As an example...to justify their @CentralPark_NYC redesign, they offered "statistics" to show that the number of pedestrians that had to wait 10 seconds to cross the Park Drive dropped by 8% on weekdays, and 6% on weekends. The problem- @NYC_DOT cooked the survey. The "BEFORE" numbers were all taken in AUGUST, when the "AFTER" numbers were in OCTOBER and DECEMBER!!! Gee, when do you think the park is more crowded? Duh! Never trust DOT self-reported stats!

Propagandists frequently rely on questionable statistics to base an argument, and they will repeat them over and over (Trumpy?). In this case these are "self-reported" DOT stats that are not peer reviewed. We know from experience that they are not to be trusted. We know from @nyc_evsa and NYC emergency rooms that pedestrian injuries are vastly underreported.

These numbers are "self-reported" by the @NYC_DOT . They are not peer reviewed, and they do not break out two-way bike lanes, which are inherently more dangerous. We also know that the vast majority of e-bike crashes involving pedestrians are vastly underreported, even when serious. Just ask the emergency rooms, a story that the media has just picked up on. P.S. The DOT has a habit of massaging their stats to justify their actions.

@katiewr31413491 @KathleenWoodnys @Megmd514 That is their plan.

@AFineBlogger @KathleenWoodnys @Megmd514 I’m concerned that if this happens Eastside 72nd next.

Have literally never seen a child riding a bike in the bike lanes. Walk Uws everyday. Gaslighting 101.

@SouthBronxUnite This was predictable.

📢 Tomorrow, we’re hosting a press conference outside our office to share our findings on air pollution in the South Bronx — and what congestion pricing is actually doing to our air. In partnership with Columbia Mailman School of Public Health, we analyzed a full year of air quality data from 19 community-managed monitors — before and after congestion pricing launched in January 2025. What we found is troubling: monitors near major expressways showed significant increases in fine particulate matter — the tiny particles linked to asthma and other illnesses. We’re bringing this data to the table to start an evidence-based conversation — and to call on the MTA to work with us on real solutions. 📆 Tuesday, May 5 🕑10am-12pm 📍Location SE Corner of Lincoln Ave & Bruckner Blvd

@SpeakerMenin @Lynn4NYC @PhilWongNYC I'm glad you are there for your constituents. This is deplorable. I hope the perps are brought to justice quickly.

Multiple synagogues and private homes in Queens were vandalized overnight with swastikas and other antisemitic graffiti. @Lynn4NYC, @PhilWongNYC and I are at one of the sites, Congregation Machane Chodosh, in Forest Hills now. When rabbis and congregants arrived to pray this morning, they expected to be met with their usual loving community. When a family woke up, they were prepared to begin an otherwise normal week. Instead, they were met with terrifying signals of hatred and threats of violence. We have visited some of these locations and are in contact with the NYPD, which is investigating and searching for at least four individuals responsible for the terrible incidents. The graffiti will be removed once the investigation is complete. With antisemitism on the rise here and across the globe, we will always stand up for our Jewish community and fight back against hate.

@enforcelawsNYC @infopobn "Sizable". I counted 4 including a mentally unstable homeless man that called himself "the king".

Several people.

@AlexSmith90014 @partners_road I think that's fairly average at this point and reflective of a relatively tight market.

@partners_road The number 'on the market' means nothing without context. Is that high/low/avg compared to pre-Mamdani? What's happening to selling prices? For all you're telling us, 1,532 listings >$4m may be a ten-year low in availability.

Hochul: “They’ll never leave.” Mamdani: “They’ll never leave.” In NYC, there are 1,532 luxury units priced at $4 million and above actively on the market, with 86 new listings added just last week (Apr 25 – May 1). They’re leaving.

@infopobn #DefundNYCDOT

West 72nd St…the DOT is fucking with you Court St…the DOT is fucking with you Flatbush Ave…the DOT is fucking with you 34th Ave…the DOT is fucking with you Park Ave-9th Ave-31St-Astoria-Columbus Ave all fucked by Transportation Alternatives run DOT

May the fourth be with you

@Megmd514 @Shebbie4nyc @TransAlt @bfurnas @NYC_SafeStreets That's their thing. Always branded as "activists". In reality, they are just showing up for work!

@AFineBlogger @Shebbie4nyc @TransAlt @bfurnas @NYC_SafeStreets Really doesn’t get worse than PAID employees of activist groups are showing up to community organized events acting like concerned citizens.

Three out of the four people in this photo SUPPORT the 72nd Street safety project. Members of @NYC_SafeStreets know firsthand what it's like to lose someone to a traffic crash, and they're fighting FOR critical, commonsense projects like 72nd Street.

@gtjco Delivered by UberEats?

I am an UWS resident who has no idea how to ride a bike and I support the bike lane. @GaleBrewerNYC @SpeakerMenin

@jimfornyc @DickYoungsGhost @OsseChi @NYCMayor @NewYorkStateAG Zohno just loves that mansion! Probably reminds him of his Neo-Colonial estate in Uganda.

@OsseChi @NYCMayor @OsseChi left out the footnote to his press statement: “We will expose deed theft even when it is NOT deed theft—and even when @NewYorkStateAG has found no credible evidence of deed theft—because rage bait works even without facts!”

I’ve been working with @NYCMayor since he was campaigning to create the Office of Deed Theft Prevention, and now, it’s a reality. @NYCMayor and I will continue to use every lever of power within City Hall to keep New Yorkers in their homes, and finally bring an end to Black displacement.
