Citibike opens one lone docking station in Washington Heights
Citibike has just opened its latest docking bike station in Washington Heights right outside Columbia University Medical Center. It’s an effort to continue serving medical professionals traveling to and from the hospital amidst the coronavirus pandemic.
The unusual thing (for now) is that the station sits alone in Upper Manhattan. The next nearest station is about 50 blocks south. Given the slow nature of the bicycles and the area being one of the hilliest in the entire island of Manhattan, it would be an unfortunate disaster if you rode UP to Washington Heights on a Citibike and found the docking station full.

At $1200, this bike, for me, is more economical and useful than a decent road bike.
