Emotions are running high in Williamsburg over the future of some recently installed bike lanes along Kent Avenue. Some residents claim that the lanes make it unreasonably difficult to do things like drop off their kids, while bike activists point to the safety and environmental benefits. Things came to a head at the CB1 meeting this week, reports Gothamist, after a pro-bike-lane board member was ousted by the chair of the executive committee. More.
Ironic, or is it?

“there’s a 3-4 car zone no parking for the school.”You can Legally stop and drop someone off in a no parking(not a no stopping or standing) zone. As long as you remain in your car you can do anything you want there unless told to move, so someone stopping and dropping someone off doesn’t have a problem.
The no STOPPING zone is a problem because you can’t even legally drop someone off. The city has been more aggressive in enforcing this. The problem arises for trucks making deliveries who ARE ticket and when the put up the signs those that were legally parked before the signs went up were then ticketed because they didn’t move the cars.
It does seem to me that a compromise that will work for most, not all people can and should be worked out. You can’t please everyone….
I’m not serious. Got that “goldie”
Good god nobody is any fun today.
wine.lover, indeed there are definitely attractive ‘hipster’ women, and on average they are way more attractive than the guys.
by the way, no self-respecting person actually refers to themself as a ‘hipster’. its like referring to yourself as being really cool. got that Dirty_Hipster?
There are definitely some attractive Hasidic ladies in Crown Heights. Not all, but some.
Like me!
at one point i had 3 indie music loving hipster chicks working for me, and swear to god they were all hot hot hot. all of them worked out and had long hair and were straight up gorgeous.
i see beautiful people walking around wburg, i think you guys are nuts anyway though.
i do think that hipster is a played out stereotype. there are just a lot of people that simply do not wear suits to work in williamsburg, but they still work.
Hipsters and Hasidic= CULTS
