Boston Public Library officials are asking the MBTA to rename the Copley station to a BPL station, Universal Hub recently reported, not unlike existing stations named for the Museum of Fine Arts, the New England Aquarium, and Symphony Hall.
If anyone’s ridden the Red Line, as the train pulls into the Charles/MGH stop, the conductor typically announces, “Now entering Charles/MGH. Mass. General Hospital. Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary.”
The Mass. Eye and Ear Infirmary, like MGH, is a division of Harvard University, but is not part of the MBTA station name. Still, for years, I recall someone announcing it.
Can’t the BPL be announced in the same manner when Green Line trains pull into Copley? Why is no one using this argument?
