Livery cabs at the Marriott
Adams St, Brooklyn, NY
Had to get the front plate as the driver would not let me get his back plate.
Livery parked in bike lane, blocking fire hydrant, and encouraged to do so by the Marriott
Adams St, Brooklyn, NY
More law breaking encouraged. Had to work hard to get these photos. Apparently more and more cyclists are taking pictures of cars. As soon as I rolled up, the drivers who were all standing around smoking would run up ad stand in front of their plates (knowing they were breaking the law).

Are these guys even allowed to pick up fares on the street like this? Or did the Marriott call them to sit camped out in the bike lane?

Again, encouraged by Marriott and the NYPD does nothing. This is a corporation using public space to make money, while at the same time putting cyclists at risk.

This guy had a placard in his dash as well. NYPD breaking the law.

More NYPD / Marriott abuse of public property
Adams St, Brooklyn, NY
So many! Why does the city even waste the time and money to paint this bike lane?
Adams St is a joke thanks to the Marriott and the NYPD!
Adams St, Brooklyn, NY
After hearing some complaints about the abuse of the bike lane on Adams St in downtown Brooklyn (leading up to the Brooklyn Bridge), I changed my morning commute route to check it out.
I was shocked! Nearly 30 pictures later, and some confrontations w/ livery drivers, I finally got back on my way to work.
Marriott is hugely to blame here, but the NYPD is abusing their placards in a pretty blatant fashion (most did not even have placards and instead put various bits of NYPD paraphernalia on their dash).
Pictures to follow.
Interesting abuse of public property by Marriott
Addams st and Willoughby, Brooklyn, NY
This was sent to me by a member so I am posting for him.
Yet again (see http://nyc.mybikelane.com/post/index/4005) the Marriott in Brooklyn (Adams St) is actually encouraging cars to park in the bike lane.
Given the proximity to the various city buildings, you have to wonder why this is not only allowed, but seemingly encouraged?
Yes, it's a bike rack in the bike lane....
Adams Street, Brooklyn, NY
Not sure if this really qualifies for the site since it's not technically a vehicle parked in the bike lane, but...
This is Adams Street in Brooklyn near the front of the Marriott Hotel. First of all the bike lane is laid out along the curb right in front of the hotel, exactly where all loading and unloading takes place. Not too brilliant to start with. But then someone in their infinite wisdom thought the bike lane would be a good place to put an artsy bike rack and outdoor public seating. Maybe since the lane is blocked most of the time anyway with hotel traffic they figured what the heck?
But to my mind the bike lane down the service road of Adams St here is one of the prime accesses to the Brooklyn Bridge. I think they could have done a slightly better job of laying it out here.
