Posted by Marc A. Rivlin on Mon Aug 26 09:25:48 2013, in response to Re: Essex- Before the IND, posted by 3-9 on Sun Aug 25 21:56:17 2013. My search of the Times found one article from January 29, 1927:OFFERS BUS TERMINAL PLAN; Industrial Association Suggests Holland Tunnel Plaza as Site. Following suggestions to use the space under Bryant Park as a bus terminal and the City Club's recent plea for decentralization, the Transportation Committee of the Lower Manhattan Industrial Association announced yesterday that it would ask the Board of Estimate and the New York-New Jersey Tunnel Commission to consider as a possible bus terminal the space under the entrance plaza of the new Holland tunnel. I found no further mention of the proposal. Bryant Park was also being considered as a bus terminal location. And, another group proposed a bus terminal at Union Square, arguing that is made more sense than Bryant Park because it was closer to the Holland Tunnel and the ferries on the west side (which had buses connecting to them) as well as its subway lines to Midtown. |
