Did anyone with even half a brain believe that the FTC would be built as advertised?I'm sure none of us here at SubChat were duped. The MTA can't get anything built. That's why we'll be lucky to see the Second Avenue Stubway at best. I'll even bet that the 7 extension is never built either. The bottom line now is that the MTA tore down useful buildings, evicted hundreds of small businesses and tore up chunks of Broadway, Fulton and Dey Streets to the inconvenience of hundreds of thousands of working New Yorkers and tourists for - what? A nondescript plaza and access to train lines only slightly better than it was before the MTA put a shovel into the ground. What a huge waste of taxpayers money. All the studies, EIS preparations, all the costs of property acquisition for naught. Just goes to show - never believe a word the MTA says. |
