We gonna rock down to... Second Avenue
Via Gothamist, we learn the NYC MTA will approve RFPs for the long-awaited Second Avenue subway.
This plan has been in the works for the better part of the last century, so I'd be surprised to see this current spurt of activity turn into actual bricks-and-mortar. Aside from the whole "we probably don't have $16 billion to kick around" issue, the main opposition to this will be the old ladies who ride the M15 and M31 buses up and down the Upper East Side, who fear "those people" coming into their neighborhood from the scary far reaches of the city. As if they couldn't just walk or take the bus.
You know, the proposed station sorta looks like London Bridge station on the Jubilee Line in London.
