Brennan Joins Fight to Save the G

Local pols have officially joined the rallying cry against to Park Slope, Windsor Terrace and Kensington, following the completion of repairs to the Culver Viaduct in 2014.

Assemblyman Jim Brennan, D-Brooklyn, called the G train an integral part of the Brooklyn subway network. He said the extra stops help stimulate the local economy and add vitality to both neighborhoods and businesses.

"It would be a serious loss—economically and in terms of forward-looking transportation planning—if this service were cut back to its pre-2009 levels," he said. 

A petition to save the five stops, which include 4th Ave.-9th St. and 7th Ave. in Park Slope, 15th St.-Prospect Park and Ft. Hamilton Parkway and Windsor Terrace, and Church Ave. in Kensington, can be found online here.
