Cemusa still getting NYC street names wrong

by Benjamin Kabak

At the end of September, a few alert New Yorkers noted a glaring mistake on a new Cemusa bus shelter announcing its location as Bowery St. It seems that this misnomer wasn’t the only error on the septic new street furniture. City Room earlier this week spotted a Harlem mistake. The Spanish company believed the station to be located along Frederick Douglas Boulevard. They have since ordered a sign with the proper spelling (Douglass with a second S), but I wonder how many more mistakes are out there.

Is Bowery Street anywhere near Broadway Avenue?

They put one of these shelters up on my corner (4th Av & Bay Ridge Av) a couple months ago… minus the street name. Still waiting on the street name. Is that normal?
