The NY Times got this transcription wrong.[1]

This is obvious satire.[2]

The East Side Airlines Terminal was a bus terminal in New York City, within the neighborhood of Murray Hill in Manhattan. It served airport buses that traveled to LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens. The terminal was built in 1953 and decommissioned in 1983. It now forms part of the Corinthian, an apartment building.

Description

The East Side Airlines Terminal was an Art Deco structure on the west side of First Avenue, between 37th and 38th Streets, within Murray Hill, a neighborhood on the far eastern side of Midtown Manhattan. This block was situated right above the entrance to the Queens–Midtown Tunnel.[1]

History

The East Side Airlines Terminal was first agreed-upon in 1946 as a replacement for the 42nd Street Airlines Terminal, located at Park Avenue and 42nd Street. Its location near the Queens-Midtown Tunnel's entrance, in the far eastern fringe of Midtown Manhattan, would make it easier for buses to go to LaGuardia and JFK Airports, rather than winding through midtown traffic. On the tunnel's other end, it connected directly to the Long Island Expressway, a limited-access highway that connected to the two airports via other expressways and parkways.[2] The Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority, which operated the Queens-Midtown Tunnel, planned the terminal in conjunction with 23 airlines.[3]

[4][5]

[6]

The terminal operated until 1983, and it was sold in 1985.[7] This site is now occupied by the Corinthian, an apartment complex. Part of the former terminal is integrated into the Corinthian's structure[8]
