	I still call the Jackie Robinson Parkway the Interboro. No disrespect to the man, but it just doesn't sound right.</div></blockquote>

	ha, that sign telling you about the rename will be there forever. Since I don't commute by car this is the most useless road in NY for me. It dumps you into the middle of the slowest moving traffic in Brooklyn. It's got some cool views though. And I call it the Jackie Robinson (moved here in 98)<br />
	<br />
	So, Van Wick or Van Wike?</div></blockquote>
	<br />
	Wick.  I've never heard anyone in my life say it the other way except for young eager traffic reporters who aren't originally from here.  I work a couple blocks from it, right off Liberty, I should make a video of me pronouncing it Wike and seeing the reactions I get. <br />
	<br />
	The Interboro is a death trap in the rain.  I think I found a use for it on three occasions in 18 years of driving, each time it was a white knuckle journey.<br />
	<br />
	Wonder who the BQE will eventually be named for?
