First New Roosevelt Island Tram Cabin Arrives Boxed And Under Wraps Last Night - Unveiled This Afternoon In All Of Its Shiny, Sleek Glory
Despite being tucked away in a wooden crate, one of the two new Roosevelt Island Tram Cabins found it's way to Roosevelt Island late last night. Roosevelt Island resident and photographer Austin Moore was there to greet our new Tram friend.
Earlier this morning the new Tram Cabin (yet to be named- hopefully we can come up with something other than #1 and #2) was moved to the work yard in Southtown under wraps
waiting for it's unveiling.
The wrapping came off and voila - a beautiful new sleek tram cabin

Roosevelt Island Operating Corp Vice President of Operations Fernando Martinez (fifth from left) and Public Safety Director Keith Guerra (third from left) were on hand to watch the unveiling, check out the interior cabin and congratulate the contractors on the arrival of the first Tram Cabin.
As of now, the first Roosevelt Island Tram cabin in scheduled to resume service on October 5 and the second one on October 16.
Ms. Berdy has more pictures of the new Tram Cabin here.
Looking forward to getting back on the Tram.

Your headline:
"Its"! Not "it's"!
Please.
Very Nice-now can we put maybe a bar in one -for some liquor and a bakery in the the other one..
And...get them back on the cable as soon as they can....
Bill is wrong. "Its" is possessive, "it's" is a contraction of "it is." So your headline is right, which I suspect you knew all along.
Why is the public safety director in the picture? What did he have to do with the project?
While you grammarians were focused on the headline (the use of "its" was correct) you missed 2 errors in the text: "found it's way to Roosevelt Island" and "waiting for it's unveiling" are both wrong. Both should be "its". People who love to use apostrophes don't know when they belong and when they don't.
Seems like the new cabins will have lots of room.
