Getting Around NYC From Greenpoint Post Hurricane Sandy – Updates

Here is an alarming map of the NYC transit system created by Zach Van Schouwen (Via Gothamist) and here is a link to the actual MTA Map, which is not as easy to read.

As you can see, there is no G at all and no L service into Lower Manhattan.

Updates: (via @NYCMayorsOffice)

- NYC Schools Closed Tomorrow (Thursday) and Friday

- Buses will run on regular routes. Be prepared for detours, substantial waits and crowding.

- Limited East River Ferry Service resumes tomorrow 7 AM from Fulton Ferry Landing, N. Williamsburg and LIC to E. 34th Street and Pier 11 (No India St)

-  Four East River bridges restricted to vehicles with 3 or more people for Thursday and Friday, 6AM to midnight.

- New Yorkers should throw away any food, including packaged food, that was touched by flood water.

- Water is safe to drink.

About Jen G

After living in NYC my entire life, I found the strongest sense of community in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. My proudest moment as owner and editor of Greenpointers.com is raising over $11,000 for New Yorkers affected by Hurricane Sandy. It shows how neighbors can come together through one small blog and make a big impact.
