Week 10: We move deeper into the Yellow Zone




The week scored a 33 on the NotSpot Index, three hours shy of the record 36 set in two consecutive icy, snowy, slushy weeks in February.
The pattern has been consistent for three weeks now: a lousy start to the week, followed by a late-week rebound.  Yes, we can’t figure out why, either.

The week’s King of All Not Spots
At 35 bikeless hours, Clinton Hill’s DeKalb Ave & Vanderbilt Ave station literally walked away with the crown. And that helped it move into third place on Brooklyn’s Top 10 NotSpot list.

The emerging Bikeless Broadway problem pushed the Flatiron to the No. 1 spot for the first time this year and had Times Square following close behind.
