New York Central Not At Fault In Grade Rail Case
Justice Gerard of the Supreme Court denied Leopold Hellinger’s bid for a peremptory writ to force condemnation of the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Company’s grade steam line on West End avenue. He faulted the Rapid Transit Commission for failing to craft a subway plan under the 1901 law, which would have required tracks under the road and surrender of steam rights if not agreed within a year.
