NYC subways were all built to bring people to Manhattan. We need more interborough, where you don't have to go into Manhattan to get to another borough (say Brooklyn to Queens, or Bronx to Queens).

I lived in LIC and worked in park slope. Was faster to go into the city then to wait and take the G.

Build up Queenslink's plan to connect southeastern and northern Queens. The infrastructure is there but Adams wants to build a park there ala High Line instead...

This would be a game changer , Manhattan and to a big extent any other part of any borough, including the north shore of Staten Island , all have great access to public transit . But once you go deeper into the other boroughs is start to get a little more difficult . Is still accessible , but it takes too long to go from south Brooklyn to Astoria , the Bronx , and many other places

I wouldn't say it gets a little difficult. It gets a lot more difficult with multiple transfers. If you need to hit multiple destinations in a day that isn't along the way to each other, it becomes impossible.
