I checked the April 1968 dispatchers' map for Manhattan that showed the MaBSTOA and TA routes as they stood then, as on display at the Transit Museum. From what I could follow, north of 9th and Fourth, only 2A and 3 went west on 9th, north on University Place, and east on 14th to Union Square East (those were the only route numbers highlighted within that path on said map); while 2, being a variant of 1 with different WB transition points, would have travelled straight north on Fourth Avenue to 14th.I think it would've been at the time of the Fifth and Madison one-way conversions of '66 that 1's southern terminus became South Ferry - and on weekends, when terminating at 8th Street-Fourth Avenue, they used the same route - south on Broadway, east on 4th Street and north on Fourth Avenue to 8th Street - as 2 had prior to said conversions. |
