My town is gambling on a number of developments,
- 16 M Ferry Building; ferry commute to Manhattan
- Luxury condos on the water
- condos downtown above new (unoccupied) business spaces
Meanwhile:
- stalled condos next to housing projects
- vacant downtown office spaces
- local side streets are badly maintained
- rent prices are looking bananas; home prices I dunno.
- commute to Manhattan is slow on LIRR train (1h 10-20m) direct. Direct runs only once in the morning and once in the evening (otherwise it’s a transfer adding up to 15 minutes).
- LIRR is expensive ($300/mo) and ferry is supposed to be more expensive, but not faster
