The Hudson and Manhattan was finally built to 33rd Street. There were
plans and studies to extend it to Grand Central but, I guess traffic
projections and the great cost of the extensions, caused the idea to be
abandoned. Remember the H&M was a private undertaking.
When the IND was built, the tracks were cut back to 32nd St. but the
station name was not changed.
