Interborough Terms Dealt Over By City Conference
New York officials and the Interborough Rapid Transit Company debated terms for extending rapid transit lines. Conference members expect a report favoring Brooklyn and Interborough routes, including a tunnel from Pineapple and Liberty streets to Manhattan and extensions along the West Side and into the Bronx. The plan aims for joint occupancy, possible five cent fare to Coney Island, and free transfers with a future McAdoo line, pending city approval.
