I wonder if these three tweaks could have saved the B37 in the first place.

1. Run the B37 via 2 Avenue between 65 Street and 39 Street instead of 3 Avenue. This would have the B37 serve Lutheran Hospital directly, and provide a direct connection to the hospital from Bay Ridge.
2. Between 39 Street and 36 Street, route the B37 to 4 Avenue to have it serve the 36 Street (D)(N)(R) station to provide a subway connection there---the old B37 had no direct subway connection outside of Downtown Brooklyn.
3. Reroute the southern end of the B37 to serve the 95 Street (R) station, and have its terminus at the VA Hospital, where the B70 currently terminates, allowing a further direct connection to SUNY Downstate - Bay Ridge (the former Victory Memorial Hospital). Buses would cross from 3 to 4 Avenue using Marine Avenue. The B70 would then return to its pre-2010 routing.

Sometimes, it's a tweak that is necessary.
