This is very good for people with Periodontal disease. Insurance doesn’t cover cleanings more than every six months which is ridiculous. In the long run this model will be better for long term dental health and I assume they may eventually add additional services if they get more seed money. Hope they open in more cities. — Cary on Wally dental care is open at Leonard and Church

This poor woman was attacked. Thank you for sharing the identity of a bigot in our neighborhood. I hope the young woman can continue to protest peacefully and remain safe. — Sara on Private: Local resident charged with hate crime

I don't understand the statement 'the extra fees they pay will be passed on to all of us.' As I understand it, each trip that is eligible to be tolled in the CBD gets charged to the user. What is there to pass on, and to whom? There is already a congestion charge for ride shares. You can see it itemized on the receipt they email you. What I'm confused about is the rate. Looking at a recent Lyft receipt, I have a $2.75 congestion charge, but the TMRB plan says it would be $2.50? So is it going down, or is this a new congestion charge on top of the existing one? To be clear, I'm fine if it is, I just can't tell. — malcolm on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

You can see on the chart that FHV and taxis make up 52 percent of vehicles on the road. — Tribeca Citizen on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

Not what I wrote. To restate: it would have been, and still is, a good idea for our city leaders to roll out those other improvements I’ve listed concurrent w congestion pricing, so that NYC-area residents can begin to see meaningful improvements in transit, cleanliness and safety as costs on car ownership increase. This is a statement of wish, not reality (at least not under Mayor Erdogan). — Reader on Reade on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

there is enough downtown. Streets are not safe. No one wants kids to be at risk in our city. — Native on City plans homeless shelter for Beekman and William

In addition to the congesting pricing plan, if the MTA needs money, they must crack down for real on the incessant fare evasion. It's a disgrace, and getting worse. I've never seen it so bad. — Marcus on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

In LA, California, credit cards not allowed, but a debit card from a national checking account is allowed. — Jill on Cannabis stores are still an all-cash business

i'm finally adding my 2 cents here- i've refrained from commenting until the picture was more carefully painted. I support the effort to relieve congestion in the CBD and the environmental impact vehicles have . However, this is my informal "boots on the ground" observation about what vehicles are actually causing the congestion :For Hire Vehicles. i (personally) deliver products to many locations in the CDB- large orders that can't be delivered on the subway. it has been my experience that VFH constitute 90% of the vehicles on any given block- especially crosstown blocks. they cruise very slowly OR park in Commercial spaces, wihh th engines running, waiting for their fares. on a recent weekday on 48the street between 7th and 6th avenue, there was NOT ONE private vehicle on that block- only VFH- parked in commercial zones and inching their way along the street. I do not have a solution for this issue- i think the customers of VFH will continue to use them and the extra fees they pay will be passed on to all of us. the fees for the number of VFH will contribute to the MTA coffers but will do nothing to contribute to the physical congestion and environmental issues — madeline c lanciani on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

Actually Uber and ECommerce are massive contributors to vehicle numbers. Instead of CP there should be a tax to ECommerce - gain revenue and reduce instant-gratification online ordering. And massive tax on evil Uber — Jen on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

CP is supposed to be for MTA subway capital projects - nothing else. BTW CP won’t help bus riders at all. The MTA has been reducing bus routes, bus frequency and bus stops for years. — Jen on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

If you like more empty storefronts in Tribeca, then embrace Congestion Pricing. Most businesses in Tribeca cannot be sustained by local residents alone. This is particularly true for restaurants, who rely on a steady and reliable stream of guests from the Tri-State area and beyond. Congestion pricing is a money grab tax on drivers for the MTA, whose record of managing money is abysmal. Congestion pricing is just another barrier to potential diners and retail shoppers to do business here. They will make their purchases elsewhere. It will also be detrimental to Broadway and the Theater District. If you truly want to improve traffic flow below 60th street and elsewhere throughout NYC, stop narrowing the roads, and create jobs for new Traffic Agents, and dispatch them to key intersections throughout the city, — Tracy Nieporent on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

Been recommending this place to everyone; tacos are filled to bursting with fresh, delicious ingredients ranging from beef to vegan and everything in between. Incredibly, the prices are so low you'll think you're in Tribeca cerca 1980: $7 each and two of them will suffice as an entree. Have those with one of the professionally fashioned house margaritas and you'll get out of there for less than 30 bucks before tax and tip. If you're tired of spending a fortune in our "neighborhood" restaurant and just want a casual, unassuming and very cozy joint to enjoy with your partner, friends or the kids, you can't beat this place! — Nicholas de Seve on New Kid on the Block: TAQ

This whole scheme is to MAKE money for the MTA for improvements, not to break even. In fact, it is obliged by state law to generate at least $1 billion in extra revenue for the MTA. — Tribeca Citizen on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

The first part, no. The second part, see the post about how taxis will deliver fees for trips within the CBD. — Tribeca Citizen on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

What about coming in the CBD zone, where I live, from Staten Island/Brooklyn over the Brooklyn Bridge and also the Williamsburg Bridge? — Carolyn on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown

Thanks for all of the info. How will this impact residents of Battery Park City who park in BPC? For example, if I leave my apt in my car from BPC and cross the West Side Highway and travel into Union Square and then later travel back and return to my apartment and garage into BPC - would I be tolled at all? Similarly, would taxis be charged for picking me up at my apt in BPC and taking me to Union Square? Thanks! — G on Congestion pricing plan will charge $15 to drive Downtown
