Multimodal Symphony captures how New York City's plethora of transportation modes complement each other. Taxis are relied on primarily in Manhattan and for trips to and from the three nearby airports, while buses fill the gaps in the Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens. The Northeast Regional Amtrak brings commuters into midtown Manhattan from New Jersey and Connecticut, while the barely-visible bike share trips are most common in lower Manhattan.
