Re: Metropolitan Avenue

Posted by BusMgr on Fri Mar 15 23:36:17 2019, in response to Metropolitan Avenue, posted by R42ToMoffat on Fri Mar 15 08:52:51 2019.

Metropolitan Avenue started at the square formed by Bushwick Avenue, Metropolitan Avenue, Maspeth Avenue, and North Second Street. Meanwhile, Grand Street was the main street in Williamsburg, leading directly to the ferry. It would make sense for cars coming from Jamaica along Metropolitan Avenue turn off onto Grand Avenue, so as to make connections with the ferry. Why both continuing on Metropolitan Avenue to its end, and go down Humboldt Street to Grand Street, when it is much more direct as it is. And to use North Second Street (since re-named Metropolitan Avenue) to First Street (since re-named Kent Avenue) or River Avenue, and then to the ferry, seems to make little sense, given that commerce was along Grand Street.
