Proposes Shuttle Trains
for B.R. L. in Greensboro

Island Railroad. TO Alburtis avenue,
Corona, aud later TO Main street, Flush
ing.
1T was largely through the efforts OF
the Greensboro Chamber or Commerce
more than eleven years ago that the
dual subway contracts. signed in March.
1913. included provision for trackase
rights for the b. r. T. on these two ex-
tensions Tho original offer OF tho b. r.
T. OF March q 1911, only proposed q loop
from Manhattan through the plaza in
Long Island City and from there south
ward across Newtown Creek to the
Williamsburg Bridge. The transit COM
mittee of the chamber worked hard to
get the R, r. II. to amend its proposal
and agree to operate Jointly with the
!. r. Il. the Astoria and Corona extern
sions.
"rhe only real permanent solution.
and the solution to which the Borough
OF Queens is entitled in return for the
taxes it pays upon N6o.ooo.ooo realty
valuations, Is the through operation Of
the trains from Manhattan over these
extensions. 1t Is the duty OF the Transit
Commission and the members OF the
Board OF Estimate to work out plan
that will make this possible and to
appropriate at once sufficient money
to carry that plan out. The Queens
boro Chamber OF Commerce welcomes
the support OF every civic and CONNER
cial organization not only In Queens
but in Brooklyn and Manhattan which
will help to make the public officials
realize their duties in this most inn
portant rnattAr.
'aThe present congestion Of passenger
traffic at the Manhattan terminus OF
the Greensboro subway Is intolerable.
It's continuance Is preventing the manu-
facturers OF Queens from securing many
employees who live in other boroughs
who must pass through that point II
is also retarding the residential devel-
opment of Queens. AZ men and women
do not care 70 pass through that point
on their way to and from their homes
in Queens.
1.-THE congestion can be reduced in
two ways. First, by the construction
and operation OF the extension Of the
Greensboro subway to Times square.
which will permit at least one-half Of
the passengers to remain on the trains,
and second, by the dual operation OF
the Astoria cd Coroha extensions,
which will enable the residents and ern-
pioyees OF Queens to avoid entirely the
congested point at the Plaza. M
THE first solution Is now up to the
Board OF Estimate. They have had for
more than three months the request of
the Transit Commission for the neces-
sary appropriation to enable the con-
tractor to start work. Every days de-
lay by the Board OF Estimate on this
appropriation causes suffering, to the
subway riders not only OF Queens but
of the other boroughs as well. As the
construction of this extension will re-
quire nearly four years the immediate
remedy for relieving the congestion in
the Queensboro subway must be found
by securing through operation of the
B. r. I. trains to Astoria and Corona. =

NAN BANKING ROOM.

Work is progressing rapidly on the
handsome fourteen story building which
the Bowery Savings Bank is erecting on
the eastern portion OF the site OF the
famous old Grand Union Hotel, on East
Forty-second street, opposite the Com
modore Hotel. The structure will be a
branch of the bank, which has made Its
home for about seventy-five years at
the Bowery and Grand street. York &
Sawyer, who are designing the Federal
Reserve Bank on Nassau street, are the
architects.
The exterior of the building Is de-
signed in the italian Romanesque style
and the material will be Of Ohio sand
stone of variegated color. The banking
room on the street level will be one of
the largest in the world. The building
has frontage of 104 feet on Forty
second street and extends southwark
through the block to Forty-first street
Some OF this space will be utilized for
the elevator lobby ana the entrance to
the subway.
The New York herald., 1922-03-12

The banking room will be lighted by
means of arched windows in front and
in the rear. These windows will be
twenty-seven feet wide and forty-four
feet high. There will also be ceiling
light in the court. which extends in
ward from Forty-frst street.
The building will be fanlSed on the
west by the skyscraper which is being
erected by the Pershing Square Build
ing Corporation, Of which Harry Man
del is vice-president. The Bowery Saw
ings Bank Is the first savings institu-
tion to establish branch bank to meet
the requirements Of expansion and drift
In business toward the outlying zones
OF the city. Its position near the Grand
Central Terminal and the subway and
elevated lines TO The Bronx, Brooklyn
and particularly the rapidly growing
sections Of Queensborough will give the
branch accessibility from all parts of
the city. From an architectural and
institutional standpoint the building bids
fair to become as much OF a landmark
as the original building on the Bowery.
