Michael J. Quill Bus Depot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Michael J. Quill Bus Depot is located on West 41st Street & 11th Avenue in the Clinton neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. It is dedicated and named after the late Mike Quill. The Michael J. Quill Bus Depot had received most of its routes from the defunct Hudson Pier depot. It is the largest depot in the city [citation needed] and consists of multiple floors (similar to the 100th Street Depot) with most of its buses stored on the roof. The Michael J. Quill Bus Depot is part of the Manhattan Division of bus depots in MTA New York City Transit buses.
