No. The City planners wanted to extend the business/shopping are from Downtown. Their plans included a satellite "downtown' area, centered at Fulton/Nostrand. To that end, the express station there was built.There has been some debate as to whether Nostrand/Fulton was originally planned as it is, or had been first designed as a local stop, modified for express use. Its setup is unique in the IND system. |
