IBX Stop by Stop: Light rail to bring New Yorkers into trendy Glendale on the Queens-Brooklyn border

As the IBX, a 14-mile light-rail line proposed by the MTA to connect Queens and Brooklyn, continues its southward journey, it arrives at Myrtle Avenue, the last stop in Queens and likely the first station to be located above street level. The proposed station is square in the middle of a vivacious shopping district in Glendale and Ridgewood (the rail line borders both communities) that's lined with thrift and antique stores, beauty salons and cafes and restaurants.
