into The Bronx on any railroad or steamship pier or dock, or to 

 any factory or warehouse that is connected with the railway by 

 a spur. 



The Borough President has directed his engineers to draw 

 up tentative plans for the Industrial Railway and has interested 

 men of capital in the plan. One step in this development has been 

 made by the Ryawa Realty Company, which has begun a $20,- 

 000,000 development at the mouth of the Bronx River, similar to 

 the Bush Terminal stores in Brooklyn. 



Part of the plan is to have a Union Terminal Market on the 

 line of the Industrial Railway, where food products may be carried 

 by all the railroads and steamships coming to The Bronx and dis- 

 tributed directly and cheaply to the retail dealers of the Borough.
