82nd Street has already gentrified a fair bit in the last decade or so with a lot more chain stores moving in.

It's not crazy low on crime though...there's a lot of activity on the blocks that surround Roosevelt and just south into Elmhurst.

Looks like the history of the MetroCard bonuses of it can be extracted here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MetroCard

Doubt it's ever coming back with OMNY in effect and fewer people pre-loading amounts to a card.

This looks like one of the first runs of the new R211 train too and was likely packed with railfans, many of whom are teenagers themselves. Wonder if that played a role in this.

It definitely looked like a bad fire since I could see the smoke from nearly 10 miles away in Queens.

I stitched it together with two separate exports. One from 1/1 through 6/30 and the other from 7/1 through 12/31.

When the 7 train was built out in the 1910's, they never envisioned the IND developing their own subway line under Queens Blvd and a transfer being built there.

I tried out your tool and while the graph shows 12 months, the delivery costs display under the graph only shows 1/1 through 9/9. Is that a glitch or intentional?

>Compare that to the subway trip from the 4/5/6 subway platforms at Grand Central to the LIRR platforms at Penn Station, which requires a ride on the Times Square shuttle and a transfer to the 1, 2 or 3 train. That trip took 13 minutes.

For those who want to save a click.

Wasn't it a very dark shade of green though?

I think the historical throwback is throwing people off since it's a much lighter shade and the fact that unless you were a baby boomer, most don't recall anything but the blue and white. Feels kind of like a similar revulsion to when the state switched to gold license plates for the last decade, though more people remember the historical gold since it wasn't as huge of a gap in time.

Apparently the cops aren't fans of it either based on this NY Post quote: https://nypost.com/2023/01/25/nypd-will-get-high-tech-new-cop-cars-with-green-racing-stripes-360-degree-cameras/

>But some cops mocked the vehicle’s new look as more fit for a nature trail than the mean streets.“Is it the Department of Parks? Is it the Department of Sanitation? No, it’s the NYPD,” one police officer said, bashing its largely green color scheme.

>“It’s a waste of money if you ask me,” said one Brooklyn cop, adding that the department’s current cars work fine. “The city’s crying for money so why not just leave things as is?”

It doesn't appear to have looked like that for some time though. ActionKid has been through there a few times since 2019 to see how it has aged.

Very interesting tool. Does this mean you'll be switching to time of use rates?

All they did was flatten track where the 10th Ave station would go. Couldn’t even fund a shell station.

Which most radios cannot receive unless you have a newer model car with an HD radio. Not many home HD radio tuners either.

That's basically the amount of time it takes for DPR to respond to any hazardous tree condition like a dead branch or one that's dangling. It's just stupefying how slow they are to dangerous conditions, let alone routine requests like this.
