Massive underground explosions continue to shake my block daily as the Second Avenue subway construction barrels on. I never hear the blast warnings but I do hear the "all clear" whistles after my furniture has stopped moving.
A giant and odd-looking crane thingy has appeared above the future site of the Second Avenue subway's 72nd Street station. You gotta feel sorry for all the folks on the lower floors of the apartment buildings, who will likely be facing out on this mess for the next several years.
The MTA just installed eight double-stacked construction trailers at the end of my block, meaning shit's about get real for our section of the coming Second Avenue subway. The street has already been torn up here for about three years and at least a dozen shops have gone under within a block of my corner. But hey, I'll have a stop right there in...2017. Maybe.
