Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Sun May 13 12:25:39 2007, in response to Re: May 11, 1975. . .End of the Culver shuttle, posted by RonInBayside on Sat May 12 19:30:28 2007. The "businesses" in the area who wanted the demolition were Macy's, Mays and (before they closed) Gertz. Young World, The Wiz, Arthur Treacher's and other small stores between Sutphin and Merrick wanted the el to stay. They had no power and no voice, since the big companies controlled both the MTA and their local representatives in Albany. David's site, while awesome, is also riddled with inaccurate information. |
