The Northern Bronx was once rural until the #4 line came. Eastern Queens was once rural until the #7 line and the Queens Blvd line came. Economic expansion follows expansion of mass transit. There is enough of a population shift eastward on Long Island and enough of a reverse commute to Long Island to justify expansion of service, now. Once reliable and meaningful transportation is in place, economic development could be explosive. |
