While it may represent an "invasion" of the BMT by the IND, in reality, after Mayor Hylan left office, the concept of the IND changed from being competition for the BMT to a possible extension of existing BMT lines. Had the city not insisted on retention of the 5 cent fare, the BMT would have likely been more willing to assume operation of the new lines as part of the BMT system and a number of the changes that did take place would have happened anyhow even if in a slightly different form. For example, S/O 59 St/Columbus Circle, the tracks intended for the present 6 Av Line would probably have been connected to the BMT's spur tracks N/O 57 St and the actual 6 Av Line not even built. |
