This was the original design in 2016 and all the local merchants flooded the council meeting and had them scale it back to what it is now. According to them, double parking is a way of life in Hoboken. Kind of ridiculous when you realize that Hoboken has to have one of the highest walkability ratings in the country

That is shocking to know...

It would make so much more sense if the bike lane and curb side parking were switched with a barrier between them. Delivery drivers and Ubers wouldn’t be able to park in the bike lane then

Exactly! Switching the two also prevents cyclists from getting doored

Another lane should fix the problems!

Let's take this drop, but also work to drain the bucket.

Gentrify the hood

Is making traveling around the city gentrification? Odd take.

Idk if this gets mentioned before - I wish they redesign the bike lane of Washington St in Hoboken. Cars parked on the bike lane all the time.
