I expect Columbus Circle to be renamed.At some point NYCT will no longer refer to "Columbus" on maps and announcements. It will simply be 59th Street. For those who think I'm joking or trolling, you're not paying attention to what's happening in America. And if you work for NYCT and you're reading this and want to justify your salary and benefits, you probably should ride this wave and make a serious suggestion to make this prediction a reality. |

Good point.Just make a campaign issue out of this and rename the Circle. Maybe "Fearless Girl Circle" with her statue prominently mounted there. I also expect NYCT to figure out a way to go pink for Breast Cancer whenever that month is. |

I am a liberal, what you would call a "leftist" and I think that is just stupid. This does not offend anyone, and barely anyone would notice it. Only railfans and people looking specifically for things that have to do with the Confederacy would notice. I do think, however, that statues like those in Charlottesville, should come down. Those belong in museums, not in the middle of town. |

The events in Charlottesville have nothing to do with this. Thank is left is and political correctness go e out of control.you are right, no one would notice....but leftists were offended by the tiles, or the mta wouldn't be altering them. It's the perfect case in point t of looking to be offended when there is absolutely no reason to be. |

This does not offend anyone, and barely anyone would notice it.We live in a society of people looking to be offended. It's like a birthright. For many being offended is all they have. Those belong in museums, not in the middle of town. What kind of museum? People will then go after the museum, it's donors, etc........ You don't get it. The people who want these statues down will only continue their behavior. I just hope they do it come election season because shit like this is when the GOP has it's best chances of winning. When the GOP voters feel marginalized. |

I hate most PC moves as much as the next guy, but TBH they look ugly and don't really represent a "crossroads" in the modern sense. Making it a + symbol instead of an x would be closer, or even doing something cool like modeling it after the Times Square street pattern (sortof like a + with a \ going through it). I mean the stupid decision has been made may as well make the most of it. |

Never mind that I don't see them being comparable.Right. Columbus Day is not an Italian St. Patrick's Day like whoever says(I forget the handle at this moment). But no one can deny, northern Europeans, especially Irish, Swedes, and Germans, like alcohol more than Italians, Greek, and Albanians. Tom Brady is a great man for giving up alcohol. I don't touch it. |
