Just look at the list of projects coming soon to your borough! Anything else you think they should be spending some money on? This federal money will sure help the middle/working class who depends on construction jobs.

$261 Million in New Federal Funding will Fund Projects Throughout all Five Boroughs

Wow that is great news..they are getting the funds for the South Bronx Greenway in Hunts Point and Port Morris!!!! I am very excited...this is gonna be off the hook...I have seen the artistic rendering of the parkspace, plazas, greening, bike lanes, and streetscapes and it looks amazing...and it will all be linked to the rest of the Bronx!

Two hundred and sixty million does not sound like a lot! I thought it was a typo error. If the U.S. Government could give AIG more than $200 billion dollars for a few big fat cats who keep on making mistakes, so why can the U.S. Government give the city $200 billion dollars as well. That will be enough to rebuild all the bridges across the East River.
