	Second Avenue El by Alexander Nobler Cohen - Page 7 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Although the editorial agreed that thousands of riders would lose their transportation line and be "dispossessed," it still found the economic incentives for demolishing the el to be motivating indeed.
		At the expense of the city or not, the Second Avenue el did benefit particular local communities within the city, but in fact the community that most benefited from the el was not Second Avenue.
		The Third Avenue line was overcrowded -- one rider complained in a letter to the editor of the New York Times of the "disgraceful, indecent and unhealthy overcrowding" on the Third Avenue el – but it did provide transportation along a route similar to that of the Second Avenue el.

	Second Avenue El by Alexander Nobler Cohen - Page 6
		Assuming that the Second Avenue el carried an average of 82,000 passengers a day, the over the course of 365 days, it carried about 30,000,000 passengers.
		That means that the Third and Ninth Avenue els carried the remaining 139,484,000 passengers in 1939.
		Some Second Avenue residents wished to see the el down because it was noisy and ugly.

		The new lines connected the beaches of Coney Island with the theaters of Times Square, and the citizens of Queens with the shopkeepers of Manhattan.
		The BMT and the IRT took their guaranteed profits year by year, but only the IRT returned any revenue to the city--a paltry $19 million over the entire term of the Dual Contracts.
		In 1994, ninety years after the $35 million IRT made its debut under the sidewalks of Manhattan, the MTA approved $17.2 billion for improvements to the existing system--and for an extension of the 63rd Street Tunnel.

	The Second Ave. Subway - The Line That Almost Never Was
		In view of the long and tortured history of the Second Avenue Subway--which had to endure wars, economic depression, bitter local disputes, and the painful impact of monetary inflation--it would be helpful to point out at this point that plans for the line underwent almost constant study and change.
		As the Decade of the Sixties began, the Second Avenue Subway appeared to be permanently doomed.
		The Second Avenue line would connect to the Pelham and Concourse lines in The Bronx, to the 59th Street Tunnel, would turn into Madison Avenue and proceed under the avenue until it linked up with the Broadway BMT at 23rd Street, thus providing additional lower Manhattan service.

	Brief History of NYC Subway
		The line was mostly elevated in the Bronx.
		IRT wanted to expand the current system, and aggressively objected other private enterprises to construct subway lines.
		For example, the line was crowded during rush hours, and the subway cars were dirty, etc. At that time they had a consensus that the public transportation could not be monopolized by a single private enterprise.

	Second Avenue Subway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The IRT Pelham Line would be switched to the combined IND/BMT division (this plan also includes other connections, which have been built), and connected to the Second Avenue Line.
		The Second Avenue Line would end just north of that connection, at 149th Street, with transfers to the IRT White Plains Road Line and the elevated IRT Third Avenue Line, the latter of which would be demolished south of 149th.
		The MTA's final environmental impact statement was approved in April 2004; the latest proposal is for a two-track line from 125th Street and Lexington Avenue in Harlem, down Second Avenue to Hanover Square in the Financial District.

	NYW&B - History of the New York Westchester & Boston Railway
		Construction of the line between the Harlem River (at 132nd Street) and White Plains (Westchester Avenue) began in Mount Vernon in 1909 and it took three years to complete the all-electric, 11,000 volt overhead-powered, state of the art railway.
		The second was the Port Chester branch, which largely paralleled the New Haven mainline between New Rochelle and Port Chester.
		When it became clear that the line north of the city line was doomed, the center express tracks were removed and processed as scrap as part of the war effort.

	IRT Flushing Line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At Queensboro Plaza, the line met the BMT's 60th Street Tunnel, as well as a spur from the elevated IRT Second Avenue Line on the Queensboro Bridge.
		IRT trains simply continued from the Queensboro Line and Queensboro Bridge onto the lines to Astoria and Flushing, originally called the Corona Line or Woodside and Corona Line before it was completed to Main Street–Flushing.
		In addition, because the IRT was bankrupt at the time, the cars were built as single ended cars, with train controls for the motorman on one side and door controls for the conductor on the other.

		To the east, closely spaced one- and two-family residences were built on relatively narrow lots next to larger parcels with detached, one-family homes of the earlier era.
		Development in the decades after the Second World War was typified by the "tower-in-the-park" apartment houses built along the northeastern and western edges of the rezoning area.
		Noting the existing scale of residential development on these streets, the rezoning establishes building height limits and requires the front wall of a building to be set back from the sidewalk.

	DREXEL DRAMATIC WRITING PROGRAM CLIPPINGS LIBRARY: Independents' Day
		The fireball they were set to deliver was rigged to flare at the same instant that a ratchet cable, which was hooked to a snatch harness hidden under Owen's costume, jerked him off his knees and tossed him thirty feet away, into the Gulf.
		The equipment was hidden in plain sight-the ratchet line was threaded through a standard hoist, the sort you'd hang your prize-winning tuna from; if any wires did show up in the shot, they would be digitally erased in post-production.
		If a scene called for a line of twenty men to hang off the end of a wagon and be dragged through the streets as the driver weaved around telephone poles, all they did was spread a little sand on the ground and go.

		NEW YORK, NY - Construction is under way on the second and final phase of the rehabilitation of the two-station subway complex consisting of the Roosevelt Avenue station on the IND line and the 74th Street station on the IRT line in Queens, NY.
		The elevator inside the building is glass-enclosed and will provide access to both the IRT and IND. The new building also will house retail facilities, New York City Transit equipment and personnel, and bus station facilities and a balcony which overlooks to the entire atrium-like space of the building interior.
		The elevated IRT station will have its mezzanine expanded and its vertical circulation points widened to alleviate current crowding.

		Development of the EIS for that project is underway, and last year the Governor supported a new rail tunnel under the East River as the best mean of serving that project, while creating the capacity to extend the Second Avenue Subway to Brooklyn.
		Past iterations of the Second Avenue Subway, in the 1920’s and 70’s also proposed to serve Brooklyn.
		I believe the Second Avenue Subway should proceed from Hanover Square under the East River to the LIRR Atlantic Branch and proceed down Utica Avenue.
