Posted by localacrosstheplatform on Wed Dec 17 10:33:32 2014, in response to QueensWay gets $444,000 grant form NY State to design the first phase, posted by Gold_12th on Tue Dec 16 01:18:00 2014. I know it's unreasonable, but the thing that enrages me more than anything about this project (and there's a lot about which to be angry here) is the gratuitous use of CamelCase.Queensway. Queens Way. Either of those would be better, but, no, we have to go with QueensWay. Can you imagine what it would be like if the 59th St. Bridge had been named the QueensBoro Bridge or something equally ridiculous? Or if I lived next to CentralPark? These aren't names meant to last, and if we're going to be building public accommodations meant to be here for the long term (which, unfortunately, the QW backers seem to want), the names have to be something that won't seem embarrassingly dated in 20 years. (See also: eliminating the letter 'e' in Internet startups -- Flickr, Grindr, Tumblr, &c.) Idiotic. |
