49th Ave to go one-way; LIC residents unaware of CB2 public hearing

All over NYC, some streets go east and some go west. What’s the big deal? Seriously, if you’re that upset by traffic patterns on an urban street, maybe it’s time to move to the Ozarks.

No aspersions to 3′s intelligence but the comment is simple minded. Nobody thinks lifetime or long time status makes you automatically an expert. But it certainly means you have likely experienced traffic patterns and their evolution more thoroughly than some newcomer genius who thinks he knows it all.

Comment’s like 3 are designed to minimize the opinions of long time residents without adding anything meaningful to the discussion.

No, it was designed to minimize the opinions of long time residents who feel that your right to an opinion is directly proportunate to the number of years you’ve lived here. #4 clearly feels this way and quickly jumped in in defense. In their eyes the voice of a lifetime resident is a close as you can humanly get to god. Their words are to be cherished and studied. Only the words of a lifetime resident whose family has lived in LIC for multiple generations can be taken more seriously. Lowest on the scale is anyone who lives in one of the new buildings. Tower residents much like the slaves in the early day of this country are only allowed to have three-fifths of an opinion.

Your right #6, I do think you are the lowest of the low, but not everyone in the new buildings, only “YOU”.

#6 is just one of those new comers that move to hood 3 hrs ago and already knows exactly what we need. We’ve seen them come and we’ve seen them go.

Townie, that’s the plan when Hunters Point South is underway. Look at the EIS for the project. 2nd Street is also going one-way.
