If you take the local shuttle bus that is replacing the F and G trains between Jay Street and Church Avenue this weekend, you’ll enjoy a similar smudged view from the seats on the left. The shuttle trains run frequently, but adding this detour to a trip is still a big nuisance.

Anyone who would go to all that trouble to get on the shuttle bus, considering the Bangladeshi Festival nearby, and schlep to some faraway part of the city must be a very good and patient person.
Or, have someone/something worth his/her while and effort on the other side of the ride.
Maybe both!
