Recently I had to deal with an abandoned car, and had another instance of NYC and the NYPD just ignoring the problems in front of them, since it was easier to make believe it didn’t exist. Someone parked an out-of-state car on my block, with its bumper thrown in the back seat, and left it …
One of the biggest issues of driving in a big city is traffic. There are always delays, and you are constantly fighting to find the shortest route, with the least amount of accidents, just to get to/from home to work. Most cities have traffic reports on the radio, that allows you every 10 minutes or …
Back in October I spoke about NYCFC’s quest for a stadium, and at the time the focus was on Elmont, and how we all hoped it wouldn’t end up there. Well yesterday, thanks to a story from YIMBY, we got some unconfirmed news of a possible stadium coming to The Bronx. The stadium project, which would …

Let’s look first at that garbage removal, …
One of my favorite parts of driving in San Diego was the traffic patterns and the way their traffic lights flow. If NYC could implement some of these it would make driving just a tad easier in a city full of crazy TLC drivers. Traffic lights that change for traffic – Between sensors in the …
Dear NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio, This idea of charging some New Yorkers more money on taxes in exchange for the low income getting half-priced fares is just unfair. We are all stuck in this over-congested city, suffering from the same terrible subway service, and it just isn’t fair that some people should pay less for …
