However, since the 14 St Line was completed before unification and even the IND, it’s likely that it would have been desirable to afford passengers from Bkln an easy transfer (although at an additional fare) to 2 Av el trains going uptown in the event that the BMT’s own Bway Subway wouldn’t take them where they needed to go. Despite the specific intent of the IND to put the BMT out of business, the city planned a station at Bway/ENY that would have afforded a convenient transfer to the BMT Jamaica and Canarsie Lines even prior to unification. As it turned out, unification was accomplished several years before the IND ENY station was opened but the purpose of the station location remained the same. |
