Do you really understand the Rush Hour crunch? The morning rush "hour" is 6:30 am to 9:30am. From 7:30am to 8:30 am the WTC train is so packed you frequently have to let one or two trains pass to get in one at Grove St. I frequently take the train back one stop to Journal Square if it's really bad. The second Journal Square tower isn't up yet. Combine that with all the other buildings going up and the PATH is basically obsolete. The 33rd St train is slightly better but that won't last given the increase in population. Our neighbors at Exchange Place are in a much worse position with almost zero capacity from 7:30 to 8:30am. It would be awesome if they could increase service at off times and on weekends as well but frankly, I'm more worried about getting to work than being late for brunch. The ferries are pretty much worthless given the cost and the fact they are only accessible to a small portion of the city. Extending the PATH will just make a miserable rush hour even more miserable. But since you understand it so well.....

I don't care for most of the art but I'm glad it's there. The topic is so subjective that global agreement is not possible. Art by committee may be boring but this is somewhat of a democracy.....
I don't know Yvonne but this is supposed to be a forum to express opinions and disagreement is fine but the idiotic name calling and abuse is why I've come to think of jclist as moronlist.

Guess you've never taken the path during rush hour. You can't get IN the train. Nobody cares about a seat. I've had to let 3 trains go by before I can get in one. Before 8am is slightly better. It adds I would 6-8 minutes to the trip. HOWEVER again after 8:30 you may need to wait at JSQ for a train or two to go by. Seriously.

Forget the curfew law. Throw the parents in the can for child neglect. Why are a 13 and 15 year old out that late? Keeping track of teenagers is hard? Guess what, raising kids IS hard.

Right, he had no business going to a well lit ATM and deserved to be robbed. Dorrian's is right across the street and was probably just closing. Hopefully they got some good video from the ATM.

Sadly it is a supply and demand issue. I too have had to weave through the pedestrian plaza on the way home, but I haven't found it threatening even late at night. Douchie, definitely, threatening, not unless you are threatened by douchebags and "women in tank tops" (really?).

When those food trucks were all over the Grove St Path Station you can't tell me they didn't affect the business of the restaurants there. Not to mention blocking the Duane Reade, not to mention spewing pollution into the square. THEY SHOULDN'T BE IN FRONT OF ANY BUSINESS WITHOUT PERMISSION. Street vendors have to have to permits, get them permits and get them in locations where they don't disturb/block/compete with other businesses. Sorry, it goes against the hip and trendy, but fair is fair.

Food trucks are fine unless they pull up and park in front of someone else's business. Someone who's paying rent and has made a commitment to the location. Pure and simple. It's unfair competition. The Two Boots guy might be an ass, but those food trucks don't belong in the Grove St Path station and they shouldn't be parked in front of another business without permission regardless if it's a restaurant or not.

Re: Bike Share System

I take the Path from Grove every day and there isn't enough space for people with their own bikes. I wish they could accomodate those people, who've been riding for years first. Plus the market they have several times a week makes that situation worse. Yes, there are other Path stations in JC, maybe the logistics at those stations are better.
I do think the bike share theory is good and no matter how many studies you do you really don't know until you try it. AND no matter what you say about the program in Manhattan tons of people are using it every day and only the bad points make news....so we shall see.

Is the idea that to have bikes up in the heights so people can ride to Grove St or Newport or wherever and dock them and get on the Path or is the idea they take them on the Path and continue riding them in or dock them in Lower Manhattan? Are they doing this during rush hour? Citibikes are big and take up alot of space. And what about the time constraint and the fees if you are forced to go over time because of train delays?
If the idea is just to ride to the station and dock them there, where are they going to put the tremendous number of docking spaces you would need to make this truly effective? I think the theory is great but the logistics are extremely difficult even without considering the cost, which is exorbitant. It's not clear what they are really trying to acheive.
