You had the M15 (NYCTA) as well as the Route 15 (MaBSTOA) in the same borough. Plus you had the 15 coming over the 59 Street bridge terminating in Manhattan. That's three 15s in the same borough.And yes, colloquially, many did not bother with prefixes. I lived near East 51st Street in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, but the locals always omitted the East and just called it 51st Street. We had no connection with Borough Park so there was no confusion. |
