  • Traffic Rules and Regulations/"Green Book" (PDF, 220
    TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS For the Holland Tunnel Lincoln Tunnel George Washington Bridge Bayonne Bridge Goethals Bridge Outerbridge Crossing Revised September 2016 The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is a self-supporting agency of the States of New York and New Jersey. It was created by a compact between the two States in 1921 for the development of transportation facilities and the promotion and protection of commerce in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan region. At the top of the organization is the twelve-member Board of Commissioners, appointed by the Governors of New York and New Jersey. There are six members from each state who serve for six-year overlapping terms. The Commissioners serve with-out pay as a public service. They report directly to the Governors of the two States, who have veto power over Commissioners’ actions. A career staff of more than 7,000 employees, headed by the Executive Director, is responsible to the Board of Commissioners. Over the years the Port Authority, at the direction of the States of New York and New Jersey has developed airports, marine terminals, bridges and tunnels, bus terminals, the PATH rapid transit system, the World Trade Center and other facilities of commerce and transportation. All of this has been accomplished without burden to the taxpayers. These undertakings are public projects; all are built with moneys borrowed solely on the Port Authority’s credit. There is no power to tax, or to pledge the credit of the States. i FOREWORD This booklet is intended to provide the users of Port Authority tunnels and bridges with detailed and specific information concerning rules, regulations and toll rates established by the Port Authority to regulate the conduct of traffic moving in or upon these vehicular crossings.

The relatively few miles of improved road were around towns and cities (a road was “improved” if it was graded). That year, Carl Fisher (developer of Miami Beach and the Indianapolis Speedway, among other things) conceived a trans-continental highway. He called it the “Coast-to-Coast Rock Highway.” It would be finished in time for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition and would run from the exposition’s host city; San Francisco, to New York City. Two auto industry tycoons played major roles in the highway’s development: Frank Seiberling - president of Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and Henry Joy - president of the Packard Motor Car Company. It was Henry Joy who came up with the idea of naming the highway after POTUS Abraham Lincoln. On July 1st 1913, the Lincoln Highway Association was officially incorporated.

  • Hudson Square Business Improvement District Proposed Expansion Draft Statement of Need May 2017
    Hudson Square Business Improvement District Proposed Expansion Draft Statement of Need May 2017 District Profile The land west of Broadway to the Hudson River between Fulton and Greenwich streets was once known as the Queen’s Farm, Queen Anne having granted the land in 1705 to Trinity Church. From the late 18th century, the area near the entrance to the present- day Holland Tunnel was known as Hudson Square for its public square surrounded by fine row houses. In 1825, with the completion of the Erie Canal, the area, along with the Greenwich Village waterfront to the north, was at the epicenter of the shipping revolution that launched New York City to the forefront of commerce. When the Hudson River Rail Road, which reached from Canal Street to Albany, opened in the 1850’s, the area’s dominance of the shipping trade grew even greater. Over time, deeper ports were better able to handle new large container ships and shipping businesses started to leave the area. The opening of the Holland Tunnel in 1927 only accelerated the trend towards trucks and away from railroads, thus devaluing one of the area’s big advantages. As the 20th century began, waterfront land became once again a more economical choice and the rapidly expanding printing industry began to move in. By the 1960’s, however, competition from around the country and around the world began a decline in the New York printing trades, which was then accelerated by technological changes. By 1980, many large firms had left the area. Like the city as a whole, in Hudson Square, a manufacturing based economy began shifting to a service economy.
