My first Artmageddon! It was a wonderful and enriching experience! Thank you to the organizers of @artmageddonbk for giving artists and creators of all kinds an event to share their work with the whole neighborhood and beyond. Thank you to my welcoming hosts who let me turn their porch into a (very breezy) photo gallery. Thanks to my awesome friends @madam_undine and @readontoast who showed up, hung out with me, and became my hype crew! And of course, thanks to all the little kids who brought their own style and color to my Dino Doodles, and everyone who stopped by to look at my photos, whether to pay compliments or to purchase a sticker or two -- it's very gratifying to know that people like my stuff 🥰 Let's do it again in October!

Starting this fall the MTA will launch the long-debated F express service. The limited express trains will only run four trains, two in the morning and two in the evening at rush hours. The trains will run express from Church Street to Jay Street-MetroTech, stopping only once at 7th Ave. The original F Express (starting in 1933) also stopped at the lower level of Bergen Street, which has been abandoned for decades – the only trace being the large shiny steel doors that used to lead down to the tracks. The new express will use this lower level track with not stop. The line has been overcapacity for years and straphangers at stations like bergen often have to wait for several trains to finally squeeze in during rush hour. Although two trains will run express during rush hour the MTA is not adding any more trains to the schedule, just diverting four to run express daily. Councilmember Brad Lander who has been studying the F Express service since residents complained about the problems plaguing the line commented on the service change: "We would be delighted if they were actually adding F express service. But this plan adds no service whatsoever, it simply eliminates service at six local stations that are already experiencing overcrowding,... They have been running a rogue F express for months, often skipping local stops with no notice or even announcement. Despite the effort to dress this up as an improvement for some commuters, bypassing these stations amounts to cutting service for thousands of other riders." What do you think about the change in service? Should the MTA open the lower level of Bergen Street and add more trains to run express? #subway #ftrain #cobblehill #carrollgardens #brooklynheights #parkslope #gowanus #redhook #ditmaspark #windsorterrace #nycsubway #numtot #mta #urbanism #nycurbanism (at Bergen Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzwUABmHRTN/?igshid=e2tsjrr7l6g7
