This photo is awesome.

As far as I know, nobody was seriously injured in this crash (although some did go to the hospital for other reasons). See more of Jesse’s photos of the big crash here.

Lovely Package posted this great image of the limited edition 1969 record sleeve that holds a pair of Gap jeans or a T-shirt which can be bought at the Kingly Court Gap store in the UK. Beautiful, no?

New South Ferry Station delayed because the gap is too wide

The new South Ferry Station that was set to open sometime this month is reportedly delayed because the gap between the platform and the train car is 1-inch too wide according to federal safety regulations. The MTA has no alternative date for the opening of the new South Ferry Station, but they do expect the 1-inch platform repair to cost approximately $200,000.

Aren’t all Subway stations required to have the same clearance between the train car and the platform? I mean, it’s not like the Subway car suddenly became fatter, so how did this mistake slip by inspectors and MTA officials?
