The routing the IND intended to use was Union, Throop and Gates Ave,to Fulton st.Why this was changed, was due to the original agreement to use Lafayette Ave, and the link to a Beford Ave subway to Driggs Ave and Lower Manhattan. The route was also changed to Schemerhorn from Livingston to reduce the cost of the transition curve,less property to aquire. The Nostrand Ave station was redesigned as a boost to urban planning. The particular strip was enhanced with businesses, and today is a sure sign of how developers look forward. While Nostrand/Fulton did not "develope" in the manner some could conclude as successful, the thriving Business Associations would put snatch the lie right out of the mouths of the distracted. However, the bigoted assumptions are just that..bigoted assumptions that I'm certain nobody honestly cares about. In any case,the Nostrand complex is an important transfer point for bus and subway riders...with Food,restaurants groceries, clothing and tech stores available. Plenty of transportation available, even a convenient connection to the LIRR. |
