I think that non-availability of rail transit in parts of the city is not because there was a Robert Moses, but because there wasn't a similar pro-mass transit person with his qualities (good and bad).


You are absolutely correct. And you also have to throw in that most people in that era weren't interested in more transit. They wanted roads, and RM gave them what they wanted. You can't take today's more transit oriented mindset of people and compare it to the 40's and 50's, as there was no transit mindset back then.
