Posted by BrooklynBus on Wed Jan 25 19:29:29 2023, in response to Re: [PHOTOS] NYC Buses - Back In Time, posted by Spider-Pig on Tue Jan 17 19:33:54 2023. Correct. There were three 15s in Manhattan an other routes were numbered twice with the same number.The third 15 was along Chambers St. They were renumbered in 1974 to reduce confusion. They changed the M15 Chambers to M22 and renumbered other crosstowns with vacant numbers.The NY Times printed my letter in July 1974, where I suggested they should have been renumbered to match the street names. I suggested it again to them in a job interview in 1984. I was told that it was a dumb idea, but when the head of OP asked one if his employees, he liked. It, so it was done three weeks later, and I didn’t get the job or any credit for the idea. |
