BRADLEv, G.FFNEY, STEER. COMP.\NY-PROPOSAL FOR Scnw.\Y SYSTE1f.

The Secretary presented the following communication, from henry Steers, Presi- tlent of the Bradley, Gaffney, Steers Company, which was referred to the Committee of the Whole:

X10 TILE HON. WILLIAM R. WILLCOX, C hairnian, Public .Service ConIntission for the First District, Tribune Building, City:

DE::\R SIR :-Replying to your favor of Ma May 2(i, 1909, we beg to submit to your IIon-orable Commission the following propo-ition relating to the construction, mainten:utce and operation of a system of subways, under the provisions of the Rapid Transit Act, as now amended, as a substitute for our proposition, heretofore submitted to you under date of March 18, 1909.

We submit herewith a map showing the proposed routes, and we briefly describe the same as follows:

Section A, extending from the Battery, through Church and Vesev Streets, with double tracks, to Broadway; thence, with a four-track double deck system, northerly along Broadway to 10th Street ; thence through private property to Irving Place thence northerly, along Lexington Avenue, under the Harlem River, to Mott Avenue and its juncture with 149th Street, following substantially the line, plans and specifi-cations of the Broadway-Lexington Avenue subway, as laid out by the Commission.

Section B, two tracks in the existing subway known as the Subway Loop, now nearing completion, and across the Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges, with neces-sary connections, and a terminal in City Hall Park.

Section C, a two-track subway connecting sections A and It, along Canal Street. Section D, two tracks in a subway' from the eastern terminal of the Manhattan

Bridge, along Flatbush Avenue extension and Fulton Street, to Ashlan(l Street, in the Borough of Brooklyn, this being a portion of the route laid out by the Cuut-mission, known as the Fourth Avenue subway.

Section E, a two-track subway along Fulton Street from Ashland Street to La-fayette Avenue; thence northerly along Lafayette Avenue to Reid Street; thence northerly along Reid Street to Broadway (Williamsburg) ; thence westerly along Broadway to the Williamsburg Bridge.

Section F, a two-track subway or elevated railroad northerly along Jerome Ave-nue, substantially as established by the Commission in its proposed Broadway-Lexing-ton Avenue route.

Section G, a two-track subway or elevated railroad easterly from Mott Avenue in the Borough of The Bronx, along 138th Street and northeasterly, substantially as established by the Commission in its proposed Broadway-Lexington Avenue route.

Section H, the Fourth Avenue subway from the intersection of Ashland Street and Fulton Street southerly, in the Borough of Brooklyn, as laid out by the Com-mission.

We, or a corporation to be organized by us in accordance with the provisions of the Railroad Law and he requirements of the Rapid Transit Act, will construct, for the City of New York, sections A, C, E, F and G above outlined. As a part of the same contract, we desire the city to construct sections B and D above outlined, section E being already practically completed and section D being substantially the first section of the Fourth Avenue subway, for which contracts have already been let.

We will equip, maintain and operate sections A, B, C, D, E, F and G as one system charging a five-cent fare and issuing transfers at intersecting points.

9172 THE CITY

'fhe title to the said railway shall he in the City of New York, but the possession thereof and the right to operate the same shall remain with us during such period of amortization as may be agreed upon, or until such tinge as the city may take over the plant and equipment, as provided in sections 2_', 27 and 28 of the Rapid Transit Act.

The proceeds derived from the operation of such railroad, after deducting oper-ating expenses, including maintenance of plant and equipment, payments to reserve and amortization fluids, as provided in the grant, an equitable charge for the use of sections 1, and D, and after payment of interest at the rate of live per cent. upon the actual cost of construction of sections A, C, E, P and G, and of the equipment of said road, shall be divided, share and share alike, between us or our successors and the city our rights in and to the railroad, unless sooner taken by the city, as above provided, to cease and determine at the end of the amortization period, without cwn-pensation.

The proposed grant shall contain a provision that in case the city shall elect, in accordance with sections 22, 27 and 28 of the Rapid "Transit Act, to take over the said road after a period of ten years, and in any event, at the termination of the period of amortization, it shall also take over the equipment of the same, paying therefor actual cost and fifteen per cent, in addition thereto. -

We believe we can complete section 1: and have trains in operation over sec-tions Il, C, D and E (known as the Lafayette, Broadway and Bridge loops) within eighteen months, provided the city completes sections B and 1) within that time. Section A should be completed within three years, and sections F and G within one year thereafter.

In case the city constructs section 1I, in accordance with the contracts already let, we are willing to enter into a contract for the equipment and operation of the same, in connection with the other sections above outlined, upon a car mileage basis or such other equitable plan as may be devised.

In view of the city's beneficial interest in the proposed system, and its operation, we suggest that some provision be made whereby the city shall be represented in the management of the operating company, by the Mayor, the Comptroller and the Chair-man of your Commission, or other persons of their appointment.

We will give such bond as is required by the statute and furnish such further guaranties as nlay be required by the Commission for the faithful performance, on our part, of the terms and conditions of the grant.

\Ve believe that the foregoing plan will furnish the city a comprehensive system of rapid transit, and enable it to receive one-half the profits resulting from the use of this public franchise, and ultimately to become the absolute owner of this system of rapid transit. without cost and without venturing either the city's money or credit.

if this meets with your approval, our engineers and attorneys will take up with your Commission the details of a formal contract, at \.our convenience.

Very truly yours, (Signed) HENRY STEERS,

President.

matter of a station at 190th Street on the Broadway division of the subway operated by the Interborough Rapid Transit Company. The adoption of the following reso-lution was thereupon moved and duly seconded

RESQLVED: That the Public Service Commission for the First District hereby deter-mines it to be necessary for the greatest efficiency of the Manhattan-ltronx rapid transit railroad, and for the public convenience, that in additional station be constructed as a part of such road at or near 190th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue in accordance with drawing dated June 3, 1909, No. 1829, and entitled "State of New York, Public Service Commission for the First District, Engineering Department, Contract No. 1, %Vest Side Line; Sketch for a proposed Station near 191st Street." And be it further

RESOLVED: That the Public Service Commission for the First District makes re-quisition upon the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of the City of New York for the authorization of bonds of the City of New York sufficient to meet the require-ments of extra work under the contract dated February 21, 1900, as amended, with John B. McDonald, for the construction of the Manhattan-Bronx rapid transit railroad to the amount of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($350.(W.00) ; and that the Chairman and Secretary be authorized to execute and transmit tinder the seal of the Commission a communication including such requisition herewith presented.

Ayes—Commissioners Willcox, McCarroll, Bassett, Eustis. Nays—None. Carried.

The Chairman and Secretary were authorized to send the following communica-tion:

Julie , 1909 To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of the City of .\'.e ork:

The lack of a subway station in the west branch of the subway between 181st Street and Dyckman Street, a distance of about 4850 feet, or a little short of a mile, has given rise to numerous complaints and has seriotuly retarded the development of what should be an important section of the city. The necessity- for such a station has, it is understood, been generally recognized, but :[ station was omitted during the construction of the road because of the very considerable expense involved due to the fact that north of 181st Street the ground rises very sharply, and the subway at the point where a station should be built is very deep. An endeavor was made to meet the situation by the construction of the Fort George Street Railway, a short incline railway running from the Dyckman Street station up the hill to Fort George, but since this short railway would have grades as high as tell per cent, the railroad officials have considered such a scheme not only impracticable, but dangerous, and have joined with the property owners in concluding that the construction of the sta-tion is the only proper and permanent solution of the difficulty. A hearing was held upon which property owners attended and were heard, developing a unanimous senti-ment in favor of the construction of a station, the only point of difference being as to its precise location. After the hearing, plans were prepared by the Commission and accepted by the Interborough Company, which provide for a station near 190th Street, which, in view of all the circumstances, is considered the best location. The drawing dated June 3, 1909, numbered 1829, shows the general plan of this station, a copy of which is transmitted herewith for your information.

The Commission is advised by its Chief Engineer that the cost of construction of this station will be approximately $350,000.00. Considerable real estate will he neces-sary for passageways, entrances and exits, but certain property owners ]lace contracted to give the city free of charge such real estate as may be necessary, so that the ex-pense to which the city will be under will be limited to the cost of construction. There is no reason why with proper facilities the Fort George section should not be rapidly developed and the increase in values resulting front the construction of a station should—without reference to the fact that the operating company will have to pay interest and sinking fund charges on the amount advanced—be enough to pay back in taxes to the city the cost of construction. Aside from the financial aspect, it is important that the city use every means in its power to develop outlying sections which may in the future accommodate a large population.

The Commission, therefore, in pursuance of section 37 of chapter 4 of the Laws of 1891 as amended, known as the Rapid Transit Act, and of chapter 429 of the Laws of 1907, hereby makes requisition upon the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of the City of New York for the authorization of bonds of the City of New York to be sold by the Comptroller thereunder, sufficient to meet the requirements of extra work under the contract dated February 21, 1900, as amended, with John B. McDoti-aid, for the construction of the Manhattan-Bronx rapid transit railroad, to the amount of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($350,00).00).

IN 1 WITNE5S `VHEREOF, The Public Service Commission for the First District has caused this requisition to be signed by its Chairman and its official seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary this 22d day of June, 1909.

BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, CITY OF NEW YORK

Present: Chairman William R. Willcox, Commissioners William McCarroll, Edward M. Bassett, Milo R. Maltbie, John E. Eustis. (1036) 1434 RAPID TRANSIT ROUTES—COMMUNICATION TO THE BOARD OF ESTIMATE AND APPORTION-

MENT On motion, the action of the Chairman was approved in sending the following

letter to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

June 24, 1919

To the Boar(! of J stintate anti! .1p/'or nurea! of flit • Cill, of New lurk: SIRS:Oii Decentbcr 7, 1(AKy \our Ilt,nurablc hoard, in resl,onse to a richest

from the Board of Rapid 'Transit Railroad C. rntntis,i,mers, au pled a resolution pro-viding that the contracts for certain rapid transit routes should be advertised and recommending to the Board of Rapid 'I ransit Railroad Contmis;ioners that alternate bids be invited fur certain lines; first, for construction alone and second, for con-structiun, equipment and operation. Included in this resolution were the following routes :

1. The Lexington Avenue route. 2. The Jerome Avenue route. 3. The Fourth Avenue and Bensonhurst route. 4. The so-called 'Fri -hiroute sinuh of 138th Street, in the Borough of

The Bronx, including in addition to the Thiel Avenue route, \lanhattan Bridge route, part of route 9-C in Brooklyn, part of route 11-El in Brooklyn, and route 11-A, 11-B and 11-F (liensonhurst route) in the Borough of Brooklyn.

and thereafter on April 12, 1907, a resolution t., the saute effect was adopted by you in reference to the Southern Boulevard anti \\'estc rester :\venue route.

On June 4, 1907, by another resolution, the Rapic1 "transit Board was authorized to let contracts for construction only, fur the Maul attan It rimIge route, part of route 9-C in Brooklyn, a part of route 11-I:1 in Brooklyn and routes 11-A, 11-15 and 11-1- (Bcnsonhurst route) in the Borough of Brooklyn, the said routes together forming a line running from Chrystie Street in the Borough of \Ianh:tttan, across the Man-hattan Bridge and under Fourth Avenue and other streets in the Borough of Brook-lyn with termini at ur near Fort IIamilton and Coney Island.

Subsequently contracts were let with your approval and consent for five Man-hattan sections of the Brooklyn Loop Lines which are now nearing completion, and contracts were awarded by this Commission for certain sections of the Fourth .Ave-nue route, Brooklyn, extending to 43<1 Street, but these have not as yet received your approval. The portion of the Brooklyn I-oop Lines between Williamsburg Bridge and Ashland Place has also been approved by your Board.

The Commission is of the opinion that the Lexington Avenue route with its con-nections should be the first line to be construct(,([ in Manhattan and The Bronx, although other longitudinal lines will be necessary in the near future. This entire line, which for convenience may lie called the Lexington Avenue system, is to extend from the Battery in \I:trthattan to Pelham Bay Park and \Vou<llown in l'lte Bronx, with an important crosstown connection •tt Canal Street, which route, proposed by this Commission, was approved by your Board on \i arch 13, 1908.

Certain changes in some of these routes, as originally adopted by the Rapid Tran-sit Contutissiun, and the addition of other route, were necessary to increase the capacity and efficiency of this system. 'Ihis involved straightening the line of the Lexington Avenue route in \Ianitattan and increasing its capacity in The Bronx, and the a(lc lit iiii of the Canal Street route in %f art hat tart and the River Avenue route in The Bronx, all of which have been approved by your Board.

While dct:tilerl plans were in the course of preparation for the Lexington Avenue route, it developed that a further modification was advisable in order to permit double-decking between Houston Street an<l the llarlem River. This change was not only Largely for the benefit of property owners, reilttcing by one-half the portion of the street near the surface necessary for the road, but \%ill pr„ci<le a great increase in its capacity and efficiency and will result in a great saving in cost of construction and of the necessary read estate. Resolutions adopting the double-deck type of construe-tiott were consented to anal approved by your Pnanil.

Since the resolutions referred to in the early part of tlti cmounntnicati in were passed, the situation has greatly changed; and the Commission believes that the time has now arrived when further steps toward subway constrttctinn, by preparation of forms of contracts an(1 proposal for bids should he taken. The Cuntmissinn desires to be advised of your present wishes as to the farm and manner in which such con-tracts should be made.

Under the" Rapid Transit Act, as recently amended, rapid transit lines may be built in the folloving ways, anion;; others:

(1). Construction roith JLuriiiperl Fends curd Equipment and Operation roil It 1',' al' Ctrpital. The l:nv has been changed so :Is to pr mvii he that a c .nuact for cvtttip-nteut and operation wee- lie made under the indeterminate plan With the right re-served to the city to take' over the equipment at rummy tine' after ten years.

(2). ('o list rtectio it of Route ill 11 'it nle or in 1t en Lt' .Issessnrcvrts upon Land 13cne-fifed acid Equipamcut and Operation -with Private C ti//tcr. 'l he iii iv as amended ap-plies the theory of special assessments for public ilnpruvcmc•nts to the cmttstruction of rapid transit lines and makes p,;stilble the award of a contract fur equipment and operation upon the indeterminate plan.

(3). Construction, 13cluipment and Operation tmi(h Private Capital. Under this plan, the ownership of the line is vested in the citi•, but tlu funds for construction, equipment and operation are provided Ly private capital and the city has the right to terminate the operating contract and to take over the operation under the indeter-minate principle.

The indeterminate plan, as applied to these various cases, gives the city the right to terminate the contract at any time after ten years, upon paying for the equip-ment an -amount not to exceed actual cost phis fifteen per cent. The road, if con-structed wholly or partly at the expense of the contractor, reverts to the city at the end of the amortization period and the anlollnt to he paid prior to this time decreases as the term continues. Each of these plans provides for the sharing equally between the city and the company of such profits as remain after paying a fair return upon capital invested.

Since the enactment of this legislation the Commission has received formal and informal communications from several parties who have expressed a desire to bid for the construction, equipment and operation of rapid transit lines; and the Contntis-sion believes that if such contracts for these lines are advertised, satisfactory bids will be obtained.

In offering these various routes for bids it is in the opinion of the Commission advisable that the invitation or invitations be bruacl em ,uglt to permit of the receipt of various bids oil as many bases as possible in order that the contract or contracts may be awarded on the best possible terms. 7'o carry out this idea the Commission suggests that it be authorized by you to advertise any of the fm llowing routes fur bidders:

For construction alone Lexington Avenue route River Avenue route Jerome Avenue elevated route Southern Boulevard and Westchester Avenue route Canal Street route Manhattan Bridge route, revised Brooklyn Loop Lines from Williamsburg Bridge to Ashland Place

For equipment and operation in case of coustructiun alone: Lexington Avenue route River Avenue rotate Jerome Avenue elevated route Southern Boulevard and Westchester Avenue route Canal Street route Manhattan Bridge route, revised Brooklyn Loop Lines Fourth Avenue route Bensonhurst, Bath Beach and Coney Island route

For construction, equipment and operation with private capital, ownership of road vested in the city:

Lexington Avenue route River Avenue route Jerome Avenue elevated route Southern Boulevard and Westchester Avenue route Canal Street route Manhattan Bridge route, revised Brooklyn Loop Lines from the Williamsburg Bridge to Ashland Place Portion of Fourth Avenue lutes from 43d Street to Fort Hamilton and Ben-

sonhurst, Bath Beach and Coney Island branch from 43d Street to Coney Island.


For cquipmcnt and operation Portion of lirookl_vtt Loop Lines now under construction, including the Will-

ianisburg and ,Manhattan Bridges Fourth Avenue route to 43d Street, including 'Manhattan Bridge No. 1 and

section 9-0-1. In any case operating rights must be retained in the Brooklyn Loop Lines for

future rapid transit lines extending into Queens County and other parts of Kings County.

It is to be noted that-in considering the proposition of "construction alone," as above, this may be undertaken by either municipal funds or by special assessment in whole or in part.

Under the present law, contracts for equipment and operation will be tinder the indeterminate plan as outlined above. Contracts for construction, equipment and Operation also will be under the indeterminate plan, ownership of the road being vested in the city as outlined under plan (3) above.

Provision will be made for soliciting bids for and letting an entire system or any part thereof to a successful bidder with appropriate provisions in the contracts for operating the various routes in conjunction with each other and for the apportionment of charges and rentals. These are matters which it is impossible to work out at the present time, but must be developed and perfected during the preparation of the contracts.

As soon as the Commission is advised of your wishes in the premises, the draft-ing of the invitations and the form of contracts can be commenced. If the Commis- sion can receive such advices at an early day, the work of preparing the contracts will be undertaken and pushed rapidly forward to completion.

Appended is a map indicating the routes as laid out. Respectfully yours,

(Signed) \V R. 1VILLCOX, Chairman.

The Secretary presented the following communication front the Chief Engineer:

June 24, 1909 Public Service Co,nii:issir•tt for the First District:

GENTLEMEN :—The work of constructilig section 9-0-3, Brooklyn Loop Lines is being seriously delayed by the presence of the westerly wall of 239-241 Canal Street, the immediate removal of which the Commission ordered by resolution on February 1, 1909. In order that no further delay may be experienced, I respectfully recommend that the Commission order the Cranford Company to remove this wall as extra work under its contract. I estimate the cost of the removal of this wall at about fifteen hundred dollars.

The presence of the wall prevents the carrying out of the plans for the entrance to the Canal Street station and the construction of the gallery to contain a sewer and a high pressure water main, the work on these parts of the construction being at present suspended by reason of the presence of the wall.

I transmit herewith a form of resolution calling for the removal of this wall by the Cranford Company as an extra tinder its contract.

Very truly yours, (Signed) HENRY B. SEAMAN,

Chief Engineer.

Thereupon. oil motion, duly seconded, the following resolution was adopted \\'HERE.\s: The westerly wall of the building 239-241 Canal Street has not been

removed and its existence 1)revents the carrying out of the plans for the construction of section 9-0-3, Brooklyn Loop Lines,

RESOLVED: That the Cranford Company he and hereby is directed to proceed with the removal of said wall in accordance with the letter of the Chief Engineer, dated June 24, 1909, as an extra under its contract.
