  • Improving Transit in Southeast Queens Upgrading Public Transportation in One of New York City’S Most Isolated Areas
    Improving Transit in Southeast Queens Upgrading Public Transportation in One of New York City’s Most Isolated Areas Thomas Dorante Fordham University April 28, 2016 Dorante 1 Introduction In the years of 1929 and 1939, the New York City Board of Transportation (predecessor to the New York City Transit Authority) released major expansion plans for the city’s young subway system. The ambitious plans, now collectively referred to as the IND Second System, proposed to construct numerous new subway lines and extensions of lines already built or then­under construction, stretching through all five boroughs to the city limits. In 1940, the city’s three transit companies (the Interborough Rapid Transit Corporation or IRT, the Brooklyn­Manhattan Transit Corporation or BMT, and the city­owned Independent Subway System or IND) were brought under collective municipal operation, unifying the subway and elevated rail networks, the depleted streetcar system, and the growing omnibus network created to replace the trolley lines. Unification was anticipated to streamline the construction of the new rapid transit lines, which would then lead to development booms in many distant neighborhoods, particularly in the outer boroughs. Most of the Second System routes, however, went unbuilt, derailed by the Great Depression and World War II. The next major plan, the Program for Action in 1968, was largely shelved due to the 1970s fiscal crisis, constructing only two short subway segments and several unused tunnels for the Second Avenue Subway in a span of over thirty years. Fast­forward to 2016 and the environment for transportation expansion has largely changed. Most of the subway system was completed by the 1950s, built when neighborhoods were sparsely inhabited, and construction was not hindered by safety concerns, labor rights, and disturbances to existing infrastructure, or by NIMBYism and other forms of community opposition.
