News Will a Giant Tunnel Underneath Downtown Brooklyn Improve Traffic?

- A cheap and ready supply of labor among the children of Park Slope.
It's all very preliminary, at this point, but the tunnel idea is by far the best solution to addressing an increasingly decrepit BQE, especially when compared to the Moses-like plan to seize 500 private domains to allow for an expansion (that idea was scuppered, thankfully).
The best part about the tunnel idea is that it would render parts of the BQE redundant which, as some have suggested, could lead to a High Line-style park. That would rule.

You are both idiots. What about all the small business that go in and out of the city everyday and need to drive. Try to carry constuction material on your bike. Narrow minded if you ask me. Make efficient vehicles. How about a construction vehicle that getts 60 miles to the gallon? I'd buy that.

klktrk is totally right- what about new and improved public transport for the borough? park and ride for staten islanders? trollies? or make the G train a "real" nyc subway, running regularly, and quickly (and without pesky muggers and stabbers...)
