City to Close Bus-Clogged Lane on the Manhattan Bridge

It’s a start, but it’s not “envy-of-the-world” stuff. The city will close one of the Manhattan Bridge’s exit lanes to traffic in the coming months after a spate of high-speed deadly crashes at the span, Department of Transportation officials revealed on Tuesday. But buses routinely clog that particular lane, potentially limiting the closure’s ultimate impact on safety.

Buying a NYC home now takes nearly 15 years to pay off — but these 5 neighborhoods buck the trend

New Yorkers wondering whether to keep renting or finally take the plunge into homeownership may want to look toward Queens — where buying can pay off in less than three years. In Rego Park, homeowners could come out ahead financially over renting after just 2.8 years, compared with a staggering 14.5 years citywide, according to a new StreetEasy report . And despite stubbornly high mortgage rates , several other neighborhoods across Queens and The Bronx offer buyers a chance to beat renters financially in fewer than five years. Queens neighborhoods offer some of NYC’s shortest timelines for buying a home to become more affordable than renting. Getty Images The findings come as New York City’s housing market faces a growing inventory crunch, with the number of homes for sale falling to its lowest October level since 2017. Across the five boroughs, just 17,496 homes were on the market last month, down 3.1% from a year earlier, according to StreetEasy. The shortage has been particularly punishing for entry-level buyers, with Manhattan’s pipeline of relatively affordable new condos projected to plunge 74% by 2029, as developers increasingly focus on luxury properties. Meanwhile, the median sale price reached $900,000, meaning a buyer putting

4 unwritten NYC social etiquette rules to not seem like an oblivious transplant

New York is being fundamentally changed by Generation Z’s migration from random suburbs that no one has ever heard of, what West Coasters vaguely refer to as “The Bay” or even worse — Los Angeles. Though I am a transplant as well as a tried-and-true Philadelphia native, city etiquette is not a foreign concept to me. For those who don’t know about the Northeast’s tendencies, take it from me that your old lifestyle won’t work here. The way you navigate the city, take public transport or even the way you express affection toward your significant other are all rooted in how you functioned back home. But you aren’t home anymore, so, as my mom would always say to me as a child, “Check yourself before you wreck yourself.”
