n. Y. c. BRONX STATION.
Railroad Buying Land for Union
.Structure at 1S8tk-st.

For a week or more the New-YOrk Central
and Hudson River Railroad has been quietly
buying land between its right Of way and Mott
ave. from 13Sth-st. to 149th-st.
This it is doing. it is said to carry out its
long contemplated plan for the erection Of ?
great union station in The Bronx where it's
suburban traffic. as we'll as that Of the Harlem
division and Of the New-Yorl. New-Haven and
Hartford Railroad. could be handled. This ter
minal would be either at 13Sth-st. 149th-st.
If it was built at 149th-st.. direct access to the
subway, which has station at Mott-ave. and
another at 149th-st. and 3d-ave.. would be given
20 Westchester County commuters
The great advantage to the railroad company
I'm the proposed station would be that it would
reduce in great degree the present congestion
at 42d-st. II the New-York Central could once
stop its suburban trains north of the Harlem
River the movement OF its through and local
express trains would be greatly expedited.
Trains of empty cars which arc run down to
42d-st. every day to be made up into local
trains could be stored at the Bronx terminal.
leaving the 42d-st. yards clear for other pur-
poses.
The union station would prove particularly
valuable while the New-York Central improve
ments are under way. because of the additional
congestion which the work is causing. It is be
iieved that when the terminal is built II will be
at 13sth-st, because the East Side line of the
subway for which route has been laid out,
places a station at 13Sth-st. and 3d-ave. a short
distance from the New-York Central road, at
13Sth-st. and Park-ave.
Among the concerns that have been ap-
preached by parties presumably representing
the New-York Central Railroad with a view to
purchasing their property. is the Francis Bacon
Piano Company. whose plant fronts the tracks
Of the railroad at Mott-ave. and 139th-st. The
railroad company is finding little difficulty in
buying the land 1t requires, and it now has
either acquired or has option all that it
needs for the building Of the station and the
tracks which it will add from Mott Haven
north.
From a statement made some time ago by
President Newman Of the New York Central,
that when the union station was built in The
Bronx II would not be at 149th-st., II is be-
lieVed that the 13Sth-st. site has been selected.
A union station IN The Bronx has been the
hope of Bronx people for years. AS far back as
1895 A. A. Mcleod, who formulated the plans
for the Reading Terminal in Philadelphia and
the Boston and Maine Station in Boston. pre-
sented plan to the Rapid Transit Commission.
from 161st-st. TO 169th-st.. between Morris-ave.
and Sheridan-ave.
Another thing which would to indicate
that the union station will be placed at Mott
Haven Q3Sth-st) is that William Barclay Par
sonss plan for the East Side subway line carries
it right into the Mott Haven station Of the New
York Central.
