Re: Original Sea Beach Route-What Is Gold St.?

I read something recently that stated the station was originally called Gold Street to remove any association with the Myrtle Avenue El, but was changed to Myrtle Avenue within short order because Myrtle Avenue was the main commercial drag at that time, and the merchants along Myrtle Avenue felt they would get more business if the station was also named Myrtle Avenue.
