    NYC Architecture and Development

    Err, please correct me if Im wrong but I was under the impression that the modern iteration of the 2nd Ave subway was always supposed to turn west at 125th - this is a logical extension considering that, and a upper crosstown route would be super useful. That said, in the FEIS Phase 2 of the 2nd...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Out of curiosity so I can gauge how hard to make these, how many layers of clues did you need?

    56 Pleasant St. / Worcester

    I would say this isn't the first parcel I would pick for a new tower in Worcester to fill out downtown, but it also isn't one I would in any way oppose.

    Name these US Airports from above

    This airfield ranks above many other substantially better equipped airfields and terminals previously featured in this thread in FAA counts of passenger enplanments, despite not having any scheduled intercity service. Edit to replace image with a more inclusive terminal screenshot. [/SPOILER]

    Idea for fixing the housing shortage

    To extend this, to a certain degree thats also the practice in certain European countries, where housing is only delivered with the bare minimum to satisfy legal requirements, not basically move in ready as is the general US practice. That can extend to even rentals; Germany is somewhat well...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Lets try an hopefully actually easy one: this airport serving this economically struggling city for many years only had air service from Spirit until an additional carrier recently brought additional flights but as yet not new destinations. This airport currently has fewer daily departures than...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Sorry y'all and @Portlander - I legitimately thought this one was gonna be easy considering its relative proximity. It's definitely the least known of the PANYNJ facilities.

    Housing (Supply Crisis & Public Policy)

    To extend this a bit further, I also think we should incentivize zero lot lines again, through allowing that increased square footage/coverage in exchange for higher construction standards (in fireproofing or other) - I want to incentivize row houses in the back bay / south end sense, and places...

    Seeing no takers, this is Fort Smith Regional in Arkansas, having lost traffic to XNA serving Bentonville, which is now the busiest airport in AR.

    Acela & Amtrak NEC (HSR BOS-NYP-WAS and branches only)

    Anecdotally, I've seen a lot of complaints on social media about the seats ergonomics on the new Acela - folks didn't like the Venture seats, they really don't like these.

    Name these US Airports from above

    Super easy I take it? fun fact, all regional service for all 3 legacies that operate here is provided by Skywest, which like Southwest originated as a pre1979 intrastate carrier. Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport, AMA, Amarillo TX! You may not be familiar with this airport which has...

    Name these US Airports from above

    Ill bite this one since its been sitting for a few days - Hector International Airport, Fargo ND. HHH evidently needed a clue, so here's a much easier one! (I tend to pick something I find "interesting," for one reason for another - HHH struck me for how leafy its terminal area is, to the point...

    I really want to say Canton OH, but I'm almost certain I'm wrong.

    Tallest building in town, can you name the city?

    This very retro pastel condo tower contains almost everything a resident may need in this maritime community which, if Wikipedia is accurate, is planning its second passenger rail stop.

    Roads and Highways General Development Thread

    For reference, the ca2019 DCR alternatives, before its bridge portfolio was handed to MassDOT. Notably, MassDOT unlike DCR doesn't make any reference to parkland greenspace in its proposals. This, right here, is why I generally think roadways which occupy space that should be managed for...

    😅 going back to my "unexpected piece of a major airport" approach with that one and the Janet Terminal at LAS, (edit, and CBX @ TIJ) surely no one would expect such at a large hub! CAE, Columbia Metropolitan Airport, Columbia SC
