Please pardon me for using your space: New purpose on development and I add up on your report now. (Thanks to Andrew Nelson And. Hello YIMBY)
Badaly is Bad. Talentless. Thoughtless.
it is the 4 train that Andrew means and it is much too far to walk from 529 east 187 street.
Thanks for the correction! And agreed that it is too far to walk in normal circumstances, but in my experience, it is comforting to have a second subway option, even if very distant.
