Hello, I’m Robert. This is my travel journal, primarily focusing on travel in and around New York City using public transportation along with articles about New York City Transit. The name of the blog is inspired my black Sprinter van, Cinder, in which I traveled with my girlfriend, Susan, for several months in 2025. Susan and I now live in New York City. The name of the van is inspired by a type of material often used for paths. The Way is a reference to “traveling this way.”
Robert Moses - NYC Impact
While there is much controversy about Robert Moses, the impact he had on New York City cannot be understated. He built almost all of the roads and bridges that circumnavigate the city. He rebuilt or renovated numerous parks throughout the city and his projects had a huge impact on many neighborhoods. Therefore, there is practically nowhere in the city that one can go without being in the vicinity of a Moses project. This is a series of articles about those projects, based on my reading of The Power Broker, by Robert Caro.
