'what are the 2 IND stations that were put in AFTER the ind was built?''Do you mean before municipal takeover (1940)?' Huh? Wasn't the IND always municipal? That was the whole point of it - Mayor Hylan wanted to have a city-owned subway to compete with 'the interests' (the IRT and BMT). That's why the IND lines were built in competition with IRT/BMT lines, rather than filling in the gaps to places not served by the IRT or BMT. |
