Just last week, the 39 Upper East Side Citi Bike station locations were revealed, and not to be outdone, the 39 Upper West Side Citi Bike station locations are now revealed as well.
Media distributed in a recent Manhattan Community Board 7 transportation committee meeting revealed the locations of the 39 forthcoming Citi Bike locations on the Upper West Side.
It's a pretty good spread, with stations placed in a checkerboard pattern every 3 or 4 avenues and blocks. But, UWS residents say there should be more, and closer together.
Several audience members told DOT they wanted stations spaced closer together, and closer to major destinations. “I don’t think this is going to be enough bikes to satisfy the need,” said Pamela Margolin, who lives on West 81st Street across from the Museum of Natural History. “We need to have enough bikes to make it work. I don’t think those two stations [near the museum] are going to be enough.”
