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.”

The Women Who Held the Ground

The Women Who Held the Ground

Three women tested the limits of what a meeting designed only to discuss “how” would allow itself to hear.

The recording arrived before RIOC posted it. On this island, that usually means they’ll release it when they’re confident nobody still cares. ArchRI simply made a copy available, the way people here tend to do once they’ve stopped waiting for institutions to keep their word. It was the first meeting of what is now meant to be a monthly community advisory group (CAG).
