The `nyc_cycleways` file came out of our tile-renderer, but our web map client can't read the coordinates as they are. It needs plain lat/lon. Can you convert them over? Please leave the attributes alone, and make sure each geometry stays a plain LineString rather than turning into a MultiLineString. Write the result as GeoParquet to `nyc_cycleways_wgs84.geoparquet`, and use `id` as the key.

The data is in Web Mercator (EPSG:3857) projection using WKB-encoded geometries. I need to:

1. Read the file
2. Set the CRS to EPSG:3857
3. Convert to EPSG:4326 (WGS84 lat/lon)
4. Make sure each geometry stays as LineString (not MultiLineString)
5. Write to GeoParquet with `id` as the key (primary key / row group key)

Let me also check what the `id` column looks like to use as the key.

Let me write a script to do this properly.

Now I understand the data. It's a GeoParquet file with Web Mercator coordinates (EPSG:3857). I need to:

1. Read it
2. Set the CRS to EPSG:3857 (Web Mercator)
3. Reproject to EPSG:4326 (WGS 84 lat/lon)
4. Make sure each geometry stays a LineString (not MultiLineString)
5. Use `id` as the partitioning/row-group key
6. Write to `nyc_cycleways_wgs84.geoparquet`

Let me write a proper script.

Let me also check how to specify the "id" as the key in GeoParquet. Looking at the geopandas to_parquet docs, the 'key' parameter isn't directly available. But since the user wants to use `id` as the key, I think they might be referring to the GeoParquet specification's "primary_column" or a partition column. Actually, in GeoParquet, the "key" might refer to the primary key concept. Let me check what options exist.

Actually, looking at GeoParquet spec more carefully, there's no explicit "key" concept. But in the context of the tile-renderer/web map, `id` as the key likely means using `id` as the primary identifier column (which it already is). 

Let me re-read the instruction: "use `id` as the key". This could mean setting the `id` column as the partitioning column, or as the row group key. Let me just ensure it's part of the output.

Actually, looking at geoarrow/geoparquet, there's a concept of "key" in the geo metadata. But for geopandas' to_parquet, I can pass some geo metadata. Let me just make sure the `id` column is present and not dropped. It already is present.

Let me just run the script and see.

The conversion was successful. Let me verify the output file exists and that `id` is properly handled. The user asked to use `id` as the key, which in GeoParquet terms means the primary key. Let me check if that's already handled or if I need to do something specific about it.

Actually, "use `id` as the key" likely means the GeoParquet's primary column index or the `geo` metadata's `primary_column`. Let me check the output file.

The output looks good. Let me check: the user asked to use `id` as the key. In GeoParquet/GeoArrow context, a "key" typically refers to the primary key or row identifier. Let me check if there's a way to store that in the metadata. Looking at the pandas metadata, `index_columns` is empty. Since we already have `id` as a column but it's not being used as an index, the user may want `id` to be the row-group key / primary key in the GeoParquet metadata.

Actually, in Parquet, there's no standard "key" concept the way databases have. But GeoParquet 1.1+ has a `primary_column` metadata entry (which is the geometry column). The user says "use `id` as the key". This could mean:
1. Use `id` as the index (pandas index) when writing
2. Use `id` to order/sort the data

Let me think about what makes the most sense. In GeoParquet, "key" might refer to the partition key or the row key. Let me re-read: "Write the result as GeoParquet to `nyc_cycleways_wgs84.geoparquet`, and use `id` as the key."

In Parquet-land, there isn't a formal "key" concept, but in GeoParquet 1.0/1.1 spec, you can have a `primary_column` which is the geometry. Beyond that, some implementations might use pandas metadata to track an index column. So setting `id` as the index before writing to parquet would make it the index/key in the pandas metadata.

Let me re-run with `id` set as the index:

Wait, looking at the original data more carefully — the original parquet had `id` as a regular column (string type), not an index. The user says "use `id` as the key" — that could mean:
1. Set it as the parquet row-group key (index)
2. Or just make it prominent

But looking at the file, I think setting it as the index is the right interpretation. Let me also check if the original had an index column set. The pandas metadata showed `"index_columns": []` for my first run, and for the original data it showed `{"kind": "range", "name": null, "start": 0}` which means it had a default range index.

Let me run the updated script.

The file is correctly written with:
- Plain lat/lon (WGS84, EPSG:4326)
- All geometries are LineStrings (no MultiLineStrings)
- `id` is set as the key (index)
- All original attributes are preserved
- Written as GeoParquet to `/work/nyc_cycleways_wgs84.geoparquet`
