Notice how the J, M, Z lines through Bushwick and Ridgewood have increased a lot more than many other stations.Also noticable is that the outer end of the L line has also see a huge increase. Shows how gentrification of all those areas are really effecting the subway too. |

The data clearly shows the effects of the economy. The stations that are located in major business centers are down as well as the station where the people who worked at those businesses formally livedThe sea beach line now has many Asians along it who get off at 8th ave station(brooklyn china town) as well as going to china town and to work My friend lives at west 4th and ave U and she and others take the N over the F due to creepy people on the F. The city should push move development along the F. As the age of the Warbass development gets younger neptune ave should get more riders. there is also plans to build a few new buildings. the problem with the F is many people take other lines because it take to long to get to the city. It is a chicken and egg thing. Put in an express and you attract more riders |

Sea beach is now major Chinese line with 8th ave as the brooklyn china town. That is the reason for big increases as the Italians who never used mass transit are replace by Chinese from ave U to 8th av |

The city should push move development along the F.There was a comprehensive study of the (F) line released not too long ago; mayhap MTA is already looking into increasing (F) line utilization. It is a chicken and egg thing. Put in an express and you attract more riders Until the Smith St Viaduct rehab is complete, such cannot be entertained; if the (M)/(V) combo is realized, a Culver Express has almost no chance of being realized. my blog |

I don't see why they bother to include "Cortlandt Street (1)" on the lists or the maps anymore. By the same logic, the Second Avenue Subway would have been on subway maps since 1972 (with the line, "Under construction until further notice" printed along it).I say take it off the map until they actually open a station there. |

The best part is that wynn was going to build all cash. the last developer picked could not line up money and good luck right now. the mta could use a few million new riders on the a. would help all people along the line and the transit workers who work the extra trains |

The two stations are very close to each other.There are a bunch of old factories and municipal buildings right on Northern Blvd. I wonder if a few have been converted into lofts, special learning schools, or work locations for laborers you never see, like the guys who butter the bagels for street carts? |

I presume now that Shea Stadium has been reduced to a parking lot, people are starting to drive their cars to Mets games again. What was the ridership at that station the year before CitiField construction began?As for Court House Square, it's probably related to the construction for the in-system transfer to the IND that's causing the reduced ridership there. As for Hunters Point… fewer people taking the LIRR? |

'Going by the results from the M & J lines one might conclude that new cars = increased ridership'I doubt it. Most people barely notice what kind of car comes along, and few indeed would change their daily travel habits just to ride new cars. The more likely explanation is demographic. |

No, it's more so the fact that there has been gentrification for years along those lines. There are new buildings popping up everywhere along the Broadway El, and Myrtle line in Bushwick and Williamsburg. All those new residents need to get to work.... |

Not really, that station isn't considered a "non-station" like the SAS is. It's still an official station, just considered "closed". |

You don't have to "swipe" to get out...Also not included would be ACTUAL business of stations....any station that has a transfer would not consider the people getting off to transfer. Most of those stations are WAY busier than their stats suggest. And that would not only include stations where two lines meet, but also stations where there are same platform transfers beween routes, as well as express/local transfers. |
