Five years to fix a subway?!?
Some homeless guy starts a fire in the NYC subway and before you know it, the C line is out of commission for 5 years.
Five f*cking years?!? For the love of God, we fought and won World War II in four years!! Only in New York, folks....

I think it's a PR tactic. First they say it will take 5 years, then everyone is relieved and overjoyed when it actually takes 6 months.
Had they initially given the 6 month estimate, everyone would still have been upset that it was taking so long.
