As a driver in Greenpoint, it is difficult to navigate because the cyclists do not follow the traffic laws of the street. If you attend a community meeting to voice your concerns as a driver, your opinions are disregarded and ignored because you have opposing views. Parking is incredibly difficult to find throughout Greenpoint and getting rid of two lanes on McGuinness will do nothing but add excessive traffic, less parking, no guarantee for biker safety, and added air pollution. When suggested about using medians as a biker pathway, the idea was disregarded by the group representative because it went against the majority and wasn't brought to DOT attention until the driver who brought up the plan suggested it to DOT. There are other ways of making McGuinness safer however, bikers should not be allowed to ride there. Leonard St. bike paths are never being utilized though cyclists claim side streets to be "so dangerous", which is false. The Polish driving community is 100% excluded from all conversation about reducing lanes of traffic because of a language barrier that is being ignored to push the cyclist agenda. Parking is already reduced because of Citibikes, film studios, private driveways, fire hydrants, and alternate side parking. Please consider the opinions of the entire Greenpoint community as opposed to solely listening to cyclists opinions. Cyclists do not care if individuals in the working class need to use their cars to go to work, are handicapped, or are elderly.

Humboldt St - Bqe Wb Entrance Meeker Ave - Mcguinness Blvd South

Cars at the gas station regularly go up on the sidewalk. The driveways for the gas station are too wide and not clearly marked so cars use the whole sidewalk. It is unsafe to walk on the sidewalk along the gas station.

I think Greenpoint would be a great neighborhood to pilot residential parking permits, it would help reduce parking needs throughout the neighborhood, prioritizing those who live here and corralling visitor parking to specific streets only
