A work crew arrived yesterday afternoon to install more Citi Bike docks along Tompkins Square Park on 10th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B... EVG regular Daniel shared these photos...
Citi Bike announced in January that they are boosting service in the busiest parts of Manhattan and Brooklyn by adding 1,250 new bikes and 2,500 docks.
As noted last week, we've seen expansions at Sixth Street at Avenue B with 27 more bikes, Second Street at Avenue C (plus 25) and Second Street at Avenue B (plus 25).
With the extra 27 bikes added on 10th Street yesterday, this docking station is now one of the largest in the Citi Bike system...
Speaking of infill...

Privileged govt/corporate partnerships are what is known as fascism. Every trip is recorded and surveilled. What part of totalitarianism don't they get?
Every trip is recorded and surveilled.
Every trip is recorded but not surveilled. The only thing that is recorded is that a bike was taken from dock A for X minutes and re-docked at dock B. Everything else is a estimate, the number of miles traveled is based on their average MPH estimates and the amount of time the bike was out of a dock. If there really was GPS on the bikes the company would be able to find stolen bikes which they can't.
I'm boased because I think Citibike is one of the best things that happend to the city in years. Getting cross town got so much easier and if there are subway delays you can just jump out and get on a bike.
Why does this Mayor-approved BUT private, money-making operation get to use PUBLIC space for free? And tons & tons of public space, at that.
Just imagine how much less room a CitiPogoStick program would take up. Plus, you’d never get a flat tire. Problem solved.
