To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To that end it is essential that space for tracks to serve other railroads be re- served by the City along all portions of the waterfront where such use is, or may hereafter become, desirable. '* 56 "Such reservation is made under the pro- posed plans. From 59th street southward the New York Central tracks are so located upon 12th Avenue and the marginal way as to permit the location, to the westward, of additional tracks for the use of other railroads, with unobstructed access to piers and bul...kheads. The City retains the fee to all cross streets leading to the water- front south of 59th street, and can thereby per- mit other railroads to cross the hues of the New York Central if required. The same reserva- tion will provide proper approaches for a freight tunnel from New Jersey, should such a tunnel hereafter be found desirable. " Since the making of this report an additional safe- guard against a possible monopoly by the New York Central Railroad has been secured by the Port and Terminal Committee of the Board of Estimate and Ap- portionment in a concession by the Railroad to permit the condemnation of sub-surface rights at all points south of 30th street, where the Company owns the fee of private property for its running tracks except under its terminals.
