CB2’s Crosswalks: 10 deaths, 1,198 injuries, and the clock won’t stop
Manhattan CB2: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 26, 2025
Speed and steel don’t blink. People do.
Since 2022 in Manhattan CB2, 10 people were killed and 1,198 were injured in crashes. Twenty-two were seriously hurt. Pedestrians and cyclists take the hits most often. The hours do not spare the daylight.
“As we mourn the loss of the victims… we are taking immediate steps to fortify this intersection,” said DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez after two people were killed at Canal and Bowery. Gothamist | NY1
“Canal Street is only as safe as its most dangerous block,” said Ben Furnas. Gothamist
“Demand for curb space… is increasing,” DOT said as it rolled out paid parking overnight uptown. West Side Spirit
Where the street keeps breaking
Five people walking were killed in CB2 since 2022. Two people on bikes. Three vehicle occupants. Pedestrians were hurt 324 times; cyclists 348. Heavy vehicles play a part: trucks and buses account for 26 pedestrian injuries and one death. Open Data
Corners repeat. Lafayette Street racks up injuries and serious injuries. So does Seventh Avenue. Broome Street saw two lives end.
The worst hours stack in the afternoon and early evening. 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. piles on injuries day after day; deaths strike at 10 a.m., 1 p.m., 4 p.m., 7 p.m., 8 p.m., and 11 p.m. The danger does not wait for night. Open Data
Names become numbers at known corners
October 28, 2024. A 54‑year‑old woman, crossing with the signal at Spring and Crosby, was struck and killed by a left‑turning Jeep. Cops marked failure to yield. Open Data
May 16, 2024. Cornelia Street. A garbage truck backing killed a 35‑year‑old man on foot. The report says “backing unsafely.” Open Data
May 1, 2025. Broome at Centre. A cyclist was killed in a crash involving an SUV and a box truck. Open Data
June 23, 2024. The Bowery at East 4th. An elderly woman was struck and killed by a taxi traveling straight; the record cites traffic control disregarded. Open Data
The patterns we keep ignoring
Contributing factors keep circling back: disregarded signals, inattention, unsafe speed, failures to yield, and unsafe backing. “Other” dominates too often. It adds up to six deaths and 522 injuries by that label alone. The box on the form may be vague. The harm is not. Open Data
SUVs and sedans lead the toll on people walking: 175 pedestrian injuries and four deaths from cars and SUVs; taxis add another death and 35 more injuries; trucks take one more life. Bikes injure too, often at crowded crossings. This is a crowded grid built for legs, not speed. Open Data
Fix the turns. Clear the corners. Slow the cars.
The crash map points to the same moves: daylight the corners at Lafayette, Seventh, and Broome; add hardened left turns where drivers keep cutting across walkers; add leading pedestrian intervals and no‑turn‑on‑red at the repeat sites. Narrow lanes and raise crossings on Broome. Rein in truck backing on Cornelia with off‑hour loading and strict backing plans.
Citywide, the tools are on the table. Albany renewed 24/7 school‑zone speed cameras through 2030. AMNY Council and state leaders have also pushed bills to stop plate‑covering and expand automated enforcement. Open States A 7997 Open States A 8787
Lower speeds save lives. The city now has the power to act on speeds and to curb repeat speeders with limiters if Albany finishes the job. The Senate has moved on a bill to require intelligent speed assistance for drivers with repeated violations; Senator Brian Kavanagh voted yes in committee. Open States S 4045
Families keep paying at the crosswalk. Officials speak of plans and pilots. The numbers on these blocks do not wait.
