 abstract = {Early optimism about general approval of Westway quickly proved baseless. New York City’s fiscal crisis weighed in favor of accepting any federal handouts, especially if the city could count on a blank check for all costs to completion, but part and parcel of that crisis and a degraded quality of city life were mass transit woes. Crime, graffiti, and poor track and subway car conditions had turned New York City’s once renowned subway system into a source of anxiety and frustration. Billions of dollars were needed to begin to rectify these problems. An expensive highway project like Westway stood in},
