Ah that old destruction of transit without planning for it's replacement routine. It's never ceases to amaze that the City of New York has had such a bad "track" record with this. It always reinforced their ineptness of handling it. Listening to store owners to manipulate which races can shop at their store, well, that's not surprising either. I visited Pratt 4 years ago while recovering from cancer surgery. The campus is a beauty. Walking out to Myrtle Avenue was a shock. The roadway looked so narrow I wondered how a 2-way elevated train fit on it. And if it and the Lexington El were in bad shape, it just reminds me of many corporations took the profit and did not put any of it back into it's mechanisms. |
