  • September 7, 2018 Setting Sales: NYC Ferry Helps Neighborhoods Brace for L-Train Closure by Kyle Campbell
    September 7, 2018 Setting Sales: NYC Ferry helps neighborhoods brace for L-train closure By Kyle Campbell On a good day, commuting in New York City is uncomfortable; on a bad day, it’s unbearable and, if the doomsayers are to be believed, it’ll soon be wholesale chaos. Next April, when the city’s transit authority closes the Canarsie Tunnel — the underground tube between Williamsburg and the East Village — for 15 months of much needed repairs, it will disrupt 275,000 daily L train riders along with the untold masses that will have to absorb the spillover into their commutes. Meetings have been held and remedies proposed, but the broad consensus is that, with its main artery severed, North Brooklyn’s economic renaissance will slowly bleed out. However, the Douglaston Companies, which has three properties in Williamsburg totaling more than 1,500 condo and rental units, is not concerned. Joshua Young, head of market-rate leasing for Clinton Management, the group’s property management division, said the company already has its saving grace for the looming L-pocalypse: the NYC Ferry. 747 Third Avenue, Floor 18 New York, NY 10017 212.889.0808 [email protected] marinopr.com “Everything we’re hearing right now about the L train is negative and everyone is focused on the Williamsburg Bridge, biking, walking and the J-M-Z [subway lines], but we see the ferry as the real solution,” Young said. “It has really been the lifeblood of our traffic this summer.” Last week, NYCEDC, the city’s economic development agency launched a ferry route that runs from Long Island City to Wall Street with new stops at Stuytown and the Lower East Side.

    In 2019 the New York City subway had a daily ridership of approximately 5.5 million and an annual ridership of roughly 1.698 billion. On Thursday, September 4, 2020 daily ridership was 1.5 million, the highest since March. Center for Buildings, Infrastructure and Public Space | Commentary on Transit 01 Though ridership is down, 90% of current subway riders, including essential workers going to and from their jobs, wear masks. The culture of avoidance of contact with others may help reduce the risk of contagion. Center for Buildings, Infrastructure and Public Space | Commentary on Transit 02 Thinking ahead ten years - or more - Gov. Cuomo vowed in January that the Second Avenue Subway extension up to 125th Street in East Harlem despite the budget uncertainties at the MTA caused by the pandemic. Center for Buildings, Infrastructure and Public Space | Commentary on Transit 03 The #7 Flushing Line of the NYC subway system was extended to the Hudson Yards development, opening to the public in September, 2015. There have been several proposals to extend it further, to New Jersey. Center for Buildings, Infrastructure and Public Space | Commentary on Transit 04 The Fulton Center, which opened in 2014, links twelve subway lines. Natural light from the skylights illuminates the platform level. The freestanding building is unusual for the MTA as is the retail space.
