I'm tired of the complaining that the MTA is only Manhattan centric, and they don't care about the outer boroughs, because it's just wrong.

Before the latest round of propsed expansions, what expansion did NYC get, and who did it benefit?

Archer Ave (Queens), 63rd st (Queens), Chrystie St (Brooklyn). Of the projects on the table, one benefits Long Islanders (ESA), while the other two will benefit Manhattanites, among others (Flushing line extension and SAS). SAS has been needed for decades. And, it will benefit everybody, Manhattanites and people from the outer boroughs alike. When expansion happens in the CBD, it benefits EVERYBODY.

Can people please stop crying? Particularly now that manhattan is FINALLY getting the subway to replace what was an additional 4 tracks of capacity.
