Stupid name for a building. Seems these new buildings may be receiving some kind of write off if they think up the dumbest, quirkiest name.
Apple Pay adoption has come quickly and easily, whereas Google Wallet remains marginally used, and Softcard – backed by major U.S. carriers – similarly lacks a large profile. But what happens when those latter options combine?

This morning along my walk to work I happened upon this 5 toothed iron bucket for a backhoe sitting by its lonesome along the walkway on the Honeywell Street bridge, and with no work crew, or anyone for that matter, in sight. It hadn't been there yesterday afternoon so probably a night crew. Still kinda strange. I noticed it from a distance and just couldn't figure out what it could possibly be. Being constructed of iron is no doubt why it was still there as it probably weighs a ton.

The best part of my job is my ability to work to/fro my place of employment, and I certainly see a lot of strange people and things along my walks. The "regular commuters" are apparently the one's in the cars, on the buses and subways, though us walkers, we are certainly having much more fun

The Greenstreets program converts paved, vacant traffic islands, and medians into green spaces filled with trees, shrubs, and groundcover in an effort to capture stormwater.
The program is a part of the NYC Green Infrastructure Plan. All funding for Greenstreet construction under this plan is administered by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

My hunch paid off as this structure was completely torn down. I've been photographing the back of the building, as the front faces a police station, and not many people understand why I photograph construction. Several times I've been asked if I was an insurance surveyor. That one makes sense, as many times I'm dressed from work. No, just a hobbyist photographer. Essentially it's my documenting the pre/post gentrification of my neighborhood

Overview of 7 Train Upgrades in Queens
The 7 train line, which connects Flushing to Midtown Manhattan, is undergoing significant upgrades in Queens, including at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station. These improvements are part of a broader initiative to enhance the subway system's infrastructure and accessibility.
Key Upgrades at 33rd Street–Rawson Street Station
Accessibility Improvements
ADA Compliance:
The station is currently undergoing renovations to become ADA-accessible. This includes the installation of elevators, which is part of a larger $6 billion investment in accessibility across the subway system.
Elevator Installation:
The contract for adding two elevators at the station was awarded in December 2023, with work expected to improve access for all riders.
Structural Enhancements
Temporary Platforms: To accommodate construction, temporary platforms have been set up at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station, along with other nearby stations.
Service Changes:
As part of the ongoing upgrades, Manhattan-bound 7 trains are skipping the 69th and 52nd Street stations through early 2026. Riders are advised to use nearby stations like 74th Street–Broadway and 61st Street–Woodside during this period.
Timeline and Impact
Construction Duration:
The upgrades are expected to continue into 2026, with various phases of work being coordinated to minimize disruptions.
Customer Experience:
These improvements aim to enhance the overall customer experience by providing better access, improved safety, and modernized facilities throughout the 7 train line.
These upgrades are crucial for ensuring that the subway system meets the needs of all New Yorker's, particularly those requiring accessible transit options.
