Public Transportation and Smart Growth

NYC has one of the best functioning public transit systems in the country, and by and large, it is extremely safe.

Sure, you have to keep your spidie senses open, but where don't you?

While I don't live there, I have family there, and have been frequently. I grew up with a mother who was a fashion designer on 7th avenue and we always took the train in. I've taken the subways everywhere evel late at night. Never had an issue.

But you just gotta be able to drive your suburban in town every day and expect free parking and bridges.

The political reality is that without new yourkers on your side, no governor could be elected. And you just know tsf would love to flip the state to get a pardon.
