The Problem With Hipster

Your neighborhood is either too cool, or not cool enough, for bikeshare kiosks:

The city’s new bike share program is set to offer thousands of wheels at 600 kiosks across Brooklyn and Manhattan beginning this summer — but the proposed plan leaves a significant chunk of Greenpoint without stations, according to a Department of Transportation draft.

Locals say there is a significant need for the program in the neighborhood, but the DOT’s recent map has not proposed bike kiosks east of [McGuinness] Boulevard, including McGolrick Park and other residential areas of Greenpoint.
