Re: Tuscarora Almanac for September 10

I recall reading about that. The very store owners who complained about the el and wanted it removed were among the first to go out of business when foot traffic declined after the el’s removal. What I never understood it why the el had to be torn down to make the connection to the Archer Ave subway when the ramp could have been added to the existing structure the way it was done at Dimas Av on the Culver or 80 St on the Fulton so that the structure could have remained in service until the subway was ready. I’m sure that some know nothing MTA engineer will probably come up with some BS reason why it couldn’t be done, but won’t buy it!
