The reason some of the stations on the IND Fulton Line have double names is that some streets end at Fulton St and streets on the north side of Fulton do not continue south and some streets south of Fulton do not continue north. Kingston/Throop and Clinton/Washington are 2 examples. Utica Av goes only as far as Fulton St and the next major street is really Reid Av (it has been renamed but I can’t recall its new name) but there is no entrance to the station at reid Ave. for some reason, even though the statin does have an entrance at Stuyvesant Av, the B of T chose not to include it in the station name. |
