Schwartz MTA New York City Transit reinstituted front door boarding and fare collection on local buses on August 31st,, ending a short term, stop-gap measure where customers boarded from bus rear doors, put in place to help safeguard employees and customers from health risks. Protective barriers around bus operators were installed on more than 5,800 buses, allowing front door boarding and fare collection to resume safely. The change increases bus capacity by 40 percent for enhanced social distancing. Additionally, the white safety line on the bus floor that riders should stand behind was pushed back to provide more distance between the operator and customers.

  • Avenue H Station House, 802 East 161H Street (Aka 1518-1524 Avenue H), Brooklyn
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 29, 2004, Designation List 355 LP-2158 Avenue H Station House, 802 East 161h Street (aka 1518-1524 Avenue H), Brooklyn. Built 1906. Landmark Site: Borough of Brooklyn Tax Map Block 6699, Lot 119-431 in part, consisting of the land on which the building is situated. On June 15, 2004, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the exterior of the A venue H Station House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. There were ten speakers in favor of designation including City Councilman Simcha Felder representing the 44th District, a representative of State Assemblymember James F. Brennan, a representative of Community Board 14, the two co-Presidents of the Fiske Terrace Association, the Brooklyn Borough Historian, a representative of the Midwood Park Home Owners Association and a representative of the Historic Districts Council. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. Summary The A venue H station on the BMT line, originally the Brooklyn, Flatbush & Coney Island Railroad, built in 1906, is the city's only shingled wooden cottage turned transit station house. Often compared to a country train stop, it originally served as a real estate sales office for developer Thomas Benton Ackerson to sell property in the adjacent neighborhood of Fiske Terrace, an early twentieth century example of planned suburban development. The structure, with a hipped and flared roof and wraparound porch, evokes in miniature the area's Colonial Revival and Queen Anne houses.
