Why are we still letting cars in our cities? Especially a city with such fantastic public transit, New York could set a new gold standard for walkable cities.
You are the first person I've heard say new York has fantastic public transport.
Like its there for sure, but the stories about it make it sound harrowing to use
I've used it a lot over several trips. I found it a bit confusing at times but it seems like the type of thing you get mostly acquainted with in a week or two. I never got fully acclimated because on my first trip when I went to the most places in the city, I typically had a friend navigate. Also I had zero metro/subway experience at the point in my life I was most confused by it.
This is the first time I've heard it implied to be a bad system.
That's good to hear honestly
