Re: NY Daily News: Robert Moses’ Name Should Be Removed from Public Works

Posted by Mitch45 on Wed Sep 18 09:18:24 2019, in response to Re: NY Daily News: Robert Moses’ Name Should Be Removed from Public Works, posted by Fisk Ave Jim on Wed Sep 18 08:59:11 2019.

Moses wanted to build the Cross-Sound Bridge but opposition by residents in the areas on both sides of the proposed bridge complained loudly. Since Moses by that time (late ‘60s - early ‘70s) no longer had the political power he once wielded, and since by that time politicians realized that Moses was a hated figure and his highways and bridges didn’t alleviate traffic the way he promised, the project was permanently shelved by 1973.
