Plan of Railroad Rejected by Common Council
The Common Council rejected the Albany Railway Company’s plan to yield the Jackson avenue culvert to vehicle traffic and build a concrete road east of the railroad through Citants Post. Citizens protested, arguing the street should be maintained per original rights of way from two farms dating back over sixty years. The council, influenced by residents, voted to reject the company’s proposition, leaving the borough with an open but inadequate culvert and no immediate relief.
