One of the NYC Ferry stops I frequent most, given its location in Brooklyn Bridge Park and off…read moreAtlantic Avenue. There's usually not too much of a line except for nice weekends when everyone is headed to Governors Island. The only times we've ever had a problem getting a ferry here are when there is a cruise ship at the terminal in Red Hook, and the last time that happened, we had to wait for 3 ferries to arrive (so nearly 2 hours) before there was one with enough space to board. Next time we're in that situation, I'm either going to check out the stop at Pier 1 or find an alternative to the ferry, because waiting that long was a frustrating waste of time. But outside of those instances, this stop has been great.

Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center is one of the biggest subway stations in Brooklyn, and I use it…read moreevery time I take my nephew to the orthodontist. I was there on Tuesday and, as usual, the size can feel overwhelming with so many lines meeting here. It is easy to get turned around, but once you figure it out, it really is a convenient station. One thing I appreciate is that there are elevators, which makes it a good choice for people who need accessible subway stations. That makes a big difference when you are carrying things or helping someone who needs easier access. The station is busy, but that also makes it feel safe, and being right next to Barclays Center and Atlantic Terminal means you can grab food, shop, or head to an event without going far. It is not perfect, since clearer signs would help, but overall it is reliable, accessible, and part of the Brooklyn experience.

It was a pleasant feeling knowing that MTA - Jay Street - MetroTech was only .3 miles away from the…read morehotel I stayed at in downtown Brooklyn. Although the commute was lengthy via Jamaica-179 St Line F with 16 stops; it was a relief and money saver because it connected me to Jackson Heights-Roosevelt Avenue/74th Street Station where I was able to catch the Q70 LaGuardia Link SBS. Located in a high traffic area next to the MetroTech Center, the subway station serves as a major transit to downtown Brooklyn. I'm not sure if the OMNY (One Metro New York) card machine is always down, but it was surely not working the day I commuted from this station. It resulted in me having to go to a different location to purchase one. I must say that I have never had this experience in Chicago Illinois when purchasing a ventra card to catch the CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) train, so I will assume that the OMNY card machine is always down. I am still open to commuting to-and-from MTA - Jay Street - MetroTech because it sits nearest to a hotel I will likely stay at again when visiting Brooklyn. However, I would not count on purchasing an OMNY card at this station. ~Have courage. Be Kind. ~ Thomas G

"New York City's tallest subway station will soon have elevators…read more.. "The Smith-9th Street stop in Gowanus -- the tallest station in the city and one of the tallest in the world -- rises nearly 90 feet above ground. It lacks elevators and efficient escalators, making accessibility difficult for many New Yorkers, including people with disabilities, seniors and commuters carrying packages." "That's about to change. State Sen. Andrew Gounardes, who represents the area, said the station will get elevators as part of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's approved $68.4 billion capital plan from 2025-2029" If ever a train station needed a major facelift, it this station. Talk about not in ADA compliance, hardly any seating on the platform and decrepit conditions. But here's something's to consider while we wait for elevators: 1. Exercise: yes, taking my "beloved "( and that is laced with so much sarcasm) R train and climbing 6 flights of stairs does make my Apple Watch very happy. Imagine my steps count, heart rate, calories burned.. off the charts! Wait it gets better! 2. More exercise! Remember the verse in the song " Spinning Wheel" by 3 Dog Night: " What goes up, must come down..????" Yes, if you need to exit at the Smith-9th Street exit, there are 4 flights of steps to climb down. There are escalators.. uh uh.. but they're going up. 3. Decrepit conditions: when you are climbing down those stairs, not a pretty sight my friends. Smile and pretend you are on a beach.. 4. Andy Byford: Remember him? Ex MTA tmcommissioner ?? I sure do. In fact, I attended a conference he gave in one of the Bay Ridge schools. He had a lot of great ideas.. like why are there bus routes that don't serve communities the way they should, and oh yes, the renovation of Smith and 9th...that was six years ago. "Andy Byford left his role as New York City Transit President in January 2020 because a state-led reorganization of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority scaled back his duties, centralizing major projects and leaving him sidelined from core decision-making. He also cited a tense, intolerable working relationship with then-Governor Andrew Cuomo, noting he was frequently undermined, excluded from key operational meetings, and bypassed by the governor's office. " 5. Waiting game: how and why is it taking this long to perform a major overhaul to a station that serves roughly 2.9 million riders? Questions, plans, renovations.. More to come, in the meantime I know my exercise goals are reachable at this station.

Hat tip to another rider: there's a nice breeze. Is this better because you can escape easier from subway evildoers or is it worse because miscreants can be more mobile?
