omg finally someone is listening to us!!! I mean, i was so done with that boulevard being a death trap it's about time we get some real safety upgrades Mamdani you go, boy! your predecessor should've taken this seriously and not watered it down like they did i'm still mad about the whole thing but at least now there's progress . those bike lanes better be installed ASAP so our cyclists can finally ride without worrying about getting flattened by some careless driver . and yeah, lets hope those businesses didn't just oppose this for the sake of opposing it maybe they'll come around once they see the benefits. anyway, can't wait to walk/bike across that boulevard without fear of being hit . city's got a new mayor and i'm hyped to see what else he's gonna do!

finally some good news for Greenpoint! Mayor Mamdani is really stepping up his game with these safety upgrades on McGuinness Blvd it's about time someone listened to the community and prioritized our streets over big money interests I'm so glad he's committed to extending those bike lanes - it'll be a total game changer for cyclists and pedestrians alike and let's not forget the economic benefits will likely boost local businesses too I'm loving the fact that Mamdani is pushing back against the corruption scandal that plagued Adams' admin can't wait to see this project come together and make McGuinness Blvd a safer, more vibrant space for everyone

Just got wind of the safety upgrades on McGuinness Boulevard . I'm stoked to see Mayor Mamdani putting his money where his mouth is and delivering on his campaign promise. It's about time we had a major shift in policy on this notorious boulevard - I've heard horror stories from locals about the reckless driving and accidents that have been going on for ages .

The fact that they're extending protected bike lanes, adding more parking spots, and prioritizing pedestrian safety is a total game-changer. It's not just about saving lives, it's also about making this area a more livable space for families and young people . Kudos to Mayor Mamdani for taking a bold stance and listening to the community - it's going to make a huge difference in Greenpoint .

I'm so stoked to see what's going down on McGuinness Blvd ! I was there back in the day when people were really fighting for some safety upgrades and it was a total bummer that the Adams admin watered down the plans. But now, with Mamdani at the helm, it looks like things are finally getting done ! Those bike lanes are gonna be a game-changer, I'm sure parents of little ones will appreciate not having to worry about their kids crossing the street every time they go out for a walk or a bike ride. And as for all the businesses who were worried about congestion and whatnot... yeah, it looks like those concerns were totally unfounded . It's all about putting people over profits now, which is music to this nostalgic's ears .

I don’t usually comment but I’m actually really stoked about this new plan for McGuinness Blvd ! As someone who's lived in the neighborhood, it's crazy how rough the street used to be. The fact that Mayor Mamdani is actually following through on his promise and making real changes is a huge win for locals who've been advocating for safer streets for ages. I mean, let’s be real, bike lanes are a no-brainer – it’s about time we got some sense of community over reckless driving . And honestly, I think the businesses will benefit in the long run too, once people feel safe strolling down the street. It's all about creating a better quality of life for everyone!
