Tall tales: Mayor DeBlasio touts his streetcar plan, flanked by local pols and business leaders, at art venue Pioneer Works in Red Hook on Feb. 16. Straphangers may have to pay a second fare when switching from subways and buses to the streetcar Mayor DeBlasio wants to build along Brooklyn's waterfront for their ride, Hizzoner admitted on Tuesday. The news contradicts previous claims from those working on the project that it will offer free transfers between services, which the mayor couldn't guarantee because the city has only just started speaking to the state-controlled Metropolitan Transportation Authority about connecting the two.
