NYC Street Design Manual

Granite and concrete blocks are installed as part of Operational Projects as hardening in order to provide safety for pedestrians. Many granite blocks have been repurposed from bridge rehabilitation projects across the City. These blocks are a sustainable solution that integrates seamlessly into New York City’s urban environment. NYC DOT also purchases new blocks when needed.

    The people stupid enough to crash into stationary boulders are too lazy to protest. They’ll donate money to rapist psychopath Republicans for the promise of a bigger condo when they get to heaven.

      I damaged my car hitting this rock!

      The rock is there to protect children on a blind corner. Had you not hit the rock you may have struck a child. If you stay on the road properly you won’t hit the rock

        Yep, exactly that kind of dumb. Oblivious to the consequences of their choices, willing to kill if inconvenienced. Hell, willing to kill to avoid inconvenience

        Are you would of the delivery drivers hitting the rocks in my neighbourhood? The discussion is usually something like that, except when they claim that the rock damaged their van, like the rock magically moved itself against their vehicle.

          I’m a professional local truck driver. If I can drive a 53ft transport truck through downtown cities, a delivery van can stay between the fucking lines on a road.
