Abstract
The New York transportation system is of pivotal importance to the regional economy and is currently in crisis (Cuomo 2017). Combined with decades of chronic underfunding, the changing functions of the system have made the Manhattan-centric structure a hindrance to many who use it (Zupan & Barone 2015). In light of this crisis and the growing gap between Manhattan-centric structure and non-Manhattan-centric functions, this study aims to address what degree adaptive planning and the practices of tactical urbanism can assist New York transportation planners moving forward and should adaptive planning or tactical urbanism be applicable to New York transportation planning, what ways these insights manifest as prescriptive actions.
