The opening of that unit basically changed our shopping habits to where we no longer had to go to Nassau County as often for food shopping.That was the goal, after all, so at least they hit the mark. Once they got Floyd Flake on board, that clinched it, no doubt. He is the Lord of Southeast Queens. BTW, isn't "Springfield Gardens Plaza" the Home Depot? Originally intended to have a multiplex anchor, and to be far more grand, if you can believe that. Not sure what happened, though, since obviously Forest City Ratner spun it off into something quite different. The theory behind the streetcar network was that while the LIRR would serve the long-distance needs As you know, I also favor conversion to rapid transit, which solves another set of problems in one stroke. The fun part is that express bus users get the $45 weekly that costs $56.75 for Zone 3 users and doesn't come with free transfers to NYCTA. Even Metro-North's weekly for $50.50 isn't as good as deal as the express bus weekly. You've put your finger on the best deal in transit. I was definitely envious even being able to afford the difference. |
