Dumb thread. You act like people don't own their own condos, co-ops, or homes in NY?
How is the OP a mod, I'll never understand.

Thats because the demand is rock bottom.
If you plan on leaving staten Island, its a $14 toll by car or you have to hop on a boat like breh posted in the post above
Not to mention its racist.
Shyheim is from there tho
Vast majority of blacks out there come from the PJs.
Staten Island is known as a republican Italian borough.

I find boat to be fun.

Pooping on your head :umad:
The boat is not fun to ride on a daily basis, you gotta take a bus on SI to get to it, also its very slow and only runs every 30 mins, 15 during rush hour.
Brehs forgot to mention express buses, which for 6 bucks one way, gives a one seat ride from SI to Manhattan on a Greyhound like Coach bus

old folk use that XBS
Its not worth it at all. Theres options like East Queens/LI and North BX/Westchester that have a cushy very fast ride on the LIRR/Metro North to Manhattan. And these areas mentioned are very affordable and are strong black/west indian neighborhoods.
Leave that wasteland to the italians and focus on having progressive blacks continually funneled into black neighborhoods

it used to be if you were taking the SIRR to the ferry, you could get off at the stop before the ferry stop to avoid swiping your metrocard, since they used to only require swipes at St. George Terminal. i believe they changed it so the second stop has metrocard turnstyles as well

NYC trucker accused of avoiding toll with device inspired by James Bond
By Barbara Goldberg February 26, 2015 11:33 AM
NEW YORK (Reuters) - A trucker accused of using a James Bond-style retractable bumper to evade a $95 toll on the George Washington Bridge has been charged with using burglary tools, police said on Thursday.
Hauling a load of candy across the bridge toward New York City on Wednesday, Pablo Ortega flipped a switch on his dashboard as he approached the toll gates over the Hudson River. That engaged a device that tilted up the truck's bumper and attached license plate, said Joseph Pentangelo, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police.
"The officer positioned at the toll booth sees the bumper lift to a 90-degree angle. This makes it unreadable to the EZ-Pass reader," Pentangelo said, referring to the electronic device that collects the toll from vehicles at the bridge entrance at Fort Lee, New Jersey.
The Port Authority, which operates the bridge, charges a $95 toll for an 18-wheeler crossing the Hudson into upper Manhattan.
Authorities also found the rear license plate of the red 1997 Peterbilt tractor-trailer was obscured with grease and unreadable.
Ortega, 45, of the New York borough of Queens is the owner-operator of the big rig. He was charged with tampering with public records and possession of burglary tools. It was not known how many times he had used the device.
"He did volunteer that the kit cost him about $2,500," said Pentangelo, noting its legal use is to protect bumpers from getting scraped at construction sites and other places with uneven pavement.
The device is the most sophisticated used so far by a toll scofflaw, said Pentangelo, noting others have created homemade devices to lift up the license plate itself or have used tape to obscure the plate.
