Why is the neighborhood not already a destination? The only way to get here is by public transit, walking or driving. The driving option doesn't really count for anything because people who have cars in NYC don't move them unless work or vacation is involved for fear of losing a parking space. Building a great bike lane will allow more people to come here. People will 'discover' the area by serendipity.

Went to site visit for Tibbetts Brook Daylighting today at 231st in the Bronx. Amazing. So glad I went. Bummed about timeline. 2025 to start construction and 2028 to open to public. Should have been done at least 10 years ago. How many more of these exist? How many unused railroad right of ways are there out there. Just sitting. Doing nothing except taking up space.
