Meanwhile the Raynmour & Flanigan windows were in a subterranean gloom, and the crusties found a whole new housing complex to occupy. No wonder they moved. Con Ed does a great disservice to the neighborhood by playing the scaffolding game, and it needs to stop.

Good luck racing around the scaffolding supports, fire hydrant, and other obstacles to get from the bus shelter to the "official bus stop".<br /><br />Some buses stop AT the bus shelter, others ignore the bus shelter (and those waiting there) and pull up to the metal post - which forces people to scramble to catch the bus. I have asked several of the bus drivers about this, and none of them "knows" anything - they just seem to stop where they feel like stopping.<br /><br />I would love it if Andy Byford spent two or three hours at that location to see for himself what an absolute obstacle course the MTA is subjecting bus riders to - and for no good reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
