Work. Study. Netflix. Read.

Latest book, 'The Power Broker' a biography of Robert Moses. Meaty, very meaty and I have no idea how fair it is...

But it's a cool reminder that some day we'll return to NYC.

Moses built all these expressways, which turned NYC into a place where people drove cars.

NYC has and had a great public transportation system. Cars are completely unnecessary in NYC. They cause great havoc there. The expressways were built with money that could have gone into improving the public transportation system.

And, yes. The construction of the expressways decimated the neighborhoods.
