Second
Avenue Subway
What's the Scoop?
By Rennie C. Weber
The proposed
Second Avenue subway would be the first major expansion of New York's
rapid transit system since the 1940's, according to Lou Sepersky,
president of Metro East and a board member of Community Board 6
(CB6). As guest speaker at the February 16th meeting of Turtle Bay
Business Associates (TBBA), Lou provided details on the proposed
subway line, which would run from the Bronx south into Manhattan
and on to Brooklyn's Atlantic Avenue station where it would connect
to the Long Island Railroad. Lou touched on how the subway could
benefit Second Avenue merchants.
Aside from
the subway, the main topic of discussion was how the Turtle Bay
Association, through TBBA, could best work with the neighborhood's
business owners, large and small. TBBA encourages business owners
and merchants to work together in a common effort to keep our community
secure, clean and thriving. After all, business is community; community
is business.
