A suitable site for a Terminal station?


One of the other proposed sites for expanding and upgrading the network is in Brooklyn. We visited that site to compare how suitable it was for an upgrade compared to Brunswick.

Just because Brunswick is the cheapest (which it may not be) and was the victim of poor planning decisions back in the 1950s doesn't make it the best choice now.

Surely it makes sense to locate an industrial facility in an industrial area where it is not next to housing?

  1. Gary. your post is simply wrong. Even if a 66kV site was built in Brooklyn, the current Brunswick Terminal Station would remain exactly as is, and continue to operate at its present capacity. It's not going to magically shut down and be rehabilitated into parkland! my worry is that your campaign is simply going to cause it to remain an ugly eyesore rather than be cleaned up.
