Re: Blog Post: IBX cannot be a tram

respectfully disagree. even in the outer boros the population density is way higher than in the majority of cities.

every arterial road in the city is surrounded by a high density population. at least in brooklyn the "trolley suburb" developmental patterns are adhered to. except for maybe chicago there are no similar patterns of development in any other city. usually, there will be a small section that has that type of development but it quickly turns into a less dense pattern.

that's why i highly doubt a jersey city-like "small train" would be useful here.

in new york city, even on staten island any new rail transit that wants to be practical, functional and successful has to be standard heavy rail.
