Controller Metz Faces Setback Over IRT Car Storage Plan
Joseph Flanagan, a local manufacturer, warns Controller Metz that his mayoral bid could fail if he allows the Interborough Rapid Transit Company to store its cars in Kingsbridge. The select committee weighs closing streets between 38th and 242nd streets and Spuyten Duyvil Road to Broadway. Frank Hedley of IRT says a storage yard is essential, current insurance is paid in Philadelphia, and property owners block land access. Flanagan declares Metz would lose Bronx votes if he backs the plan.
