Adding some complications for Roosevelt Island Day 2023, Queens-bound F Trains detour over the E Line from Friday night at 11:45 until Monday morning at 5:00. As a slight consolation, we will get E Trains along with Fs into Manhattan during that period.
The Roosevelt Island Daily News
Expect the obvious, i.e., more Tram crowding, and given Team RIOC/Westchester’s recent lapses, don’t count on any help from the state agency.
The MTA’s guidance.
“For service to Roosevelt Island and 21 St-Queensbridge, take the F to Jackson Hts-Roosevelt Av and transfer to a Manhattan-bound E or F.
“For service from Roosevelt Island, take the Q102 bus (days/evenings) to Queens Plaza Accessbility for the F, overnight take a Manhattan-bound F to W 4 St-Wash Sq Accessbility for Queens-bound F.”

Who Does This?
At the June 18 meeting of the Roosevelt Island Operating Corporation’s Real Estate Development Advisory Committee, President and Chief Executive Officer B.J. Jones acknowledged that there had been no progress finding a tenant for the long-discussed medical space on Main Street. Hudson/Related Realty LLC had told him that filling the space, along with other vacant storefronts, was proving more difficult than expected.
