Yea, I remember that...you are right there regarding congestion pricing, although I’d argue that they already have. Try driving on a toll bridge out there and see what you pay.
True; I live a dozen miles west of NYC and haven’t been there in years. The NYC tourism industry is concerned by the number of young people in NJ that have never set foot in NYC; as our population in NJ shifts southwest, I suspect many of those younger people will never go there.
