Plus: Deputy Mayor Alicia Glen talks about big plans for the Brooklyn Navy Yard; a look at why drivers are rarely found to be at fault when they hit pedestrians; New York commercial real estate through the lens of the GM building – now home to the Apple Store and FAO Schwarz; and the MTA attempts to improve subway manners.
