@urbanistariel: 🧐 Should NYC parks be right next to highways? Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso tells us how placing recreational parks right next to highways in NYC have proven detrimental to health and community cohesion. #urbanplanning #urbanism
I wonder what land was available to have a direct highway at the time to connect Long Island to NYC

Robert Moses was overall a positive on NYC

It must have been so great to be an urban planner back then. Looking at the aftermath today, they literally got paid for terrible designs

It's so easy to dump on Moses in hindsight , no other or modern planner could do better, let's put bus and bike lanes everywhere

all major thoroughfares should be turned into tunnels. let’s do canal street next to restore the neighborhood and increase property values.

We bid it here in Sa Francisco. Bore tunnels for roadways and parks above.

Wouldn’t the fumes still be there, especially at the entrance and exit of the tunnel?

If we aren’t going to tear down the BQE…we should follow other cities leads and cap it

Moses made it so bad that the gangs couldn't even cross over to each other's side. Thanks a lot, Robert

And some people rather ban cow emissions 🙄. Curious if planting large trees and perennials could help as a filter for better air quality? The amount of traffic is so congested though..

But there are MANY challenges in the design solutions of retro-fitting a highway system into an urban area, especially one with the geographical characteristics of NYC and its boroughs

I think they should add more female fruit trees, perennials, pine trees and evergreen trees all throughout the park and BQE greenery areas

Robert Moses was the pure definition of a racist. That design although with the cross Bronx has the most asthma cases

Developed in an era when ppl still chain smoked cigarettes indoors. An impact survey of any kind would’ve been tossed in the trash 💀
