Have they looked into underground garbage storage? I think in Paris (and likely elsewhere) they have large tanks below street level that are raised when trucks need to pick up the refuse.
- terminado 10y ago"They" have not. Even the underground in Manhattan is crowded. Manhattan is basically an island of very hard, solid metamorphic rock. Most of the city is plenty shot through with tunnels and foundations, and underground car garages. You could probably ask the sanitation department why they haven't explored these options: http://www1.nyc.gov/site/dsny/index.page http://www1.nyc.gov/site/dsny/index.page Please report back, if they ever reply to you. Also, "terror alert levels" are not a thing, and really haven't been, since like... 2004? And probably only lasted that long, since 2004 was an election year, for "you know who."
- Jack000 10y agoI saw it at the Staten Island ferry terminal last week, maybe because it's approaching 9/11? It had a yellow insert and said something like alert level 1. That combined with the "see something say something" ads does make me feel like terrorism might a real possibility. For my part I've avoided the subway at peak hours. I know it's pretty unlikely, but who knows.
