Posted by W.B. on Wed Jun 14 15:23:27 2017, in response to Re: Tuscarora Almanac for March 1, posted by andy on Mon Mar 6 20:51:01 2017. I have another question regarding ex-NYCO #2. Reading the Nov. 5, 1963 New York Times article about the pending one-way conversions of Fourth Avenue and Lafayette Street; Sixth Avenue south of Herald Square; and Broadway between Herald and Madison Squares and between Union Square and Canal Street, it noted that said #2 turned at Broadway (after Nov. 10 of that year) onto East Fourth Street towards the Bowery (presumably its southern terminus back then was City Hall, as was definitely the case with ex-NYCO #1 which terminated there after running along Broadway south of Union Square). I wonder if this held after the 1966 Fifth and Madison one-way conversions (and that of Broadway from Madison Square to Union Square), and at what point the #2 left Fifth on its southbound travels - 8th Street (as did ex-FACCo's 2A and 3)? 23rd Street? 26th Street? Certainly if it was still City Hall that would go some ways (besides route duplication of 2A south of 110th) towards the rerouting to Third and Lexington as 101A after 1969 (and renumbering as M102 in 1974). I suppose the answer would be in that 1972 Motor Coach Age article about MaBSTOA's first ten years . . . |
