I think that's the tunnel . . . recently saw pics with water intruding.

What are New Yorkers thoughts on this?

How does one avoid tunnels from JFK to The Village?

Thank you

The water coming through the Lincoln Tunnel is because the alligators are slowly working their way in. Been leaking for years. No big deal.

Scuba diving gear and an N95 mask are a must now in NYC. Ask scuba Steve

JFK to village doesn't need to involve a tunnel. Take a bridge

Every time I go, they take me through the tunnel.

Did you guys see the recent pictures of the water pouring into the tunnel?

They say it's going to collapse.

I have NEVER taken a tunnel from JFK. RFK (Triborough) bridge every time. The alligators are snacking on the cement in the tunnel. Or maybe it's the rats. Either way, it's always leaked.

If you take any tunnel from JFK to the Village then it's Brooklyn Battery (Hugh L. Carey) Tunnel, not the Lincoln Tunnel - if coming from Newark Airport then it would be the Lincoln Tunnel.
