@TrumpDailyPosts Wouldn’t it be wild if we elected local leaders to make decisions for our cities, as opposed to having one dude try to run all 19,495 of them? Just a thought

CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan, and all of New York, is SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING!
Donald Trump Truth Social Post 01:58 PM EST 02/19/25

@JoeBorelliNYC Good point! Public transit should definitely be cheaper than the car tolls, right?
English
Me: maybe I won’t take my car to Manhattan today to Mayor Adams’s state of the city address
The MTA: ok your trip will cost $14 and take 3 hours each way.
English
(3/3) You can flood the subway system with one or a million cops, but if they all just congregate in the same place and ignore (!) requests for help from the public, nothing is changing @GovKathyHochul @NYPDPC @MTA @NYPDTransit @NYCMayor
English
(2/3) …with the cops still on the platform. They shrug and walk to the center of the platform, where there are 6 (!) cops just chatting in a circle. After a few minutes they all disappear up the stairs
English
(1/3) Guy screaming and clearly having hallucinations on the E train. Cops get on two cars down, I talk to them about getting him assistance. They say we’ll take a look, wait 2 (!) stops, attempt to walk the two cars at the station, but the train closes its doors and drives off…
English
@DaveCoIon Ooof. Really makes her old tweet she poorly.
Gale A. Brewer@galeabrewer
Many refer to me as Borough President Brewer but from now on you can also refer to me as Busway President Brewer. I’m proud to have been the first elected official to support a busway on 14 Street and thrilled that @NYC_DOT has heeded my calls for a busway on 181 Street.
English
Gale Brewer is trying to trade on her past support for bike lanes and bus lanes to trash a bus lane plan on 96th Street (which is not in her district)
English
@jkwessel @NYC_DOT @NYCSanitation Agreed, but why are they so tiny?? Not the only place where we’ve replaced car parking with something 1/10th the volume of a car
English
Containerized trash protecting bike lanes are good urban policy and implementation! 👏🏻 @NYC_DOT x @NYCSanitation
English
@TAMeltzer @StreetsblogNYC And how many places across the country have tried congestion pricing to mitigate the impact on air quality?
English
@StreetsblogNYC Really? There are air quality alerts all over the country...
English
Because #CongestionPricing wasn't implemented on June 30, 60,902 more tons of carbon dioxide have been emitted in NYC.
We need congestion pricing now.
NYCEM - Notify NYC@NotifyNYC
.@NYSDEC Air Quality Health Advisory: Air Quality Index (AQI) forecast to reach 101-150 from 11AM-11PM on Tues., 7/9. Unhealthy for sensitive groups & may be unhealthy for those sensitive to air pollution. Info: weather.gov/okx/. Multilingual/ASL: on.nyc.gov/1m52k8v.

@BKBPReynoso Thank you Mr. Borough President! This is a good take. Let’s get this passed. We need so much more housing
English
Today I released my official recommendation on City of Yes for Housing Opportunity.
My advice to the Department of City Planning is simple:
Do not back down.
Do not scale back.
Do not shy away.
If you’re going to do anything, do more.
English
@miriam_riviera @colin_rafferty @UnderhillOSCC @NYC_DOT safety.fhwa.dot.gov/speedmgt/ref_m… here’s your study!
English
It’s vindictive , I study must be conducted on exactly why this is being done the reasons for it, and who’s funding all of this. This needs to be taken to federal court. This violates people just trying to get around to go to school and work. you cannot just do whatever you want in a supposed democracy
English
Today @NYC_DOT informed us that the speed limit on the Underhill Bike Boulevard will be reduced to 10 mph.
Underhill has seen >80% reduction in crashes thanks to the bike blvd treatment. Now the new speed limit will also lower the risk of serious injury from a crash to below 10%
English
@CarlHeastie @CraigGurianNYC Please Mr Speaker, let’s just try it for 6 months and see how it goes. The infrastructure is already in place
English
Now with @CarlHeastie replies in thread that . . . speak for themselves. NY press corp: you decide whether there needs to be follow-up.

@ebottcher Thank you!! What about the much smaller but equally dangerous segment on 7th Ave/Varick St? Two amazing bike lanes waiting to be joined!
English
BIG WIN coming! Since I took office, we’ve been to pushing for a protected bike lane on Lower Sixth Avenue in the Village. Next week, DOT is presenting plans at Community Board 2 for a protected bike lane from Lispenard St. to 14th St. DOT will also be responding to our request
English
@bradhoylman Thank you Senator! This is the right move, and preserves democracy among many other things
English
We’ll be leaving Albany this evening with congestion pricing wounded, but STILL intact & STILL the law.
We stood strong. 1000s of NYers had our backs.
Let’s redouble our efforts to ensure its full implementation. We can’t go backwards on climate, safer streets & a stronger MTA.

@AirlineFlyer @Airbus Which airline is the target customer for this…
English
In Zurich, you can rent a 1,089-sq. ft. corner 3BR/2BA in a new construction high-rise for $4,452/mo. It's got a windowed kitchen, one windowed bathroom, and a loggia. Plus parking for $220/mo. Single-stair, obviously (plus two elevators) homegate.ch/rent/4001075171
English
@ebottcher @BrianKavanaghNY @RepDanGoldman @MarkLevineNYC @DeborahJGlick Thank you councilmember! Will you also help us by calling for the same one avenue over, Varick St from Houston to Ericsson?? Part of the just 11.7 miles we still need in lower Manhattan nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/04/15/op-…
English
One of my priorities is getting protected bike lanes and pedestrian safety features on every major corridor in Council District 3. Last year, we were able to win a protected bike lane on Tenth Avenue (to be completed this year). One missing gap is Sixth Avenue, below W9th Street.

NYC writer and cyclist Sean Scott argues that it's time to fill the gaps and create a complete Manhattan bike lane network: nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/04/15/op-…

@DeborahJGlick @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @GVSHP I’m curious if you’ve read the @FurmanCenterNYU supply report? Or if not, what you’re reading instead? furmancenter.org/thestoop/entry…
English
What have developers wanted that they haven’t gotten? Lifting the FAR cap gives developers carte blanche- doesn’t guarantee affordable housing - and they don’t have to talk to anyone but produces displacement. @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @GVSHP
English
@DeborahJGlick @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @GVSHP What’s more, how do you justify the STATE blocking the city from creating new housing?? Shouldn’t the city get to decide this?
