The entire project was completed in just two years. Ultimately the new Queens–Midtown Tunnel made expanding North Beach Airport a better option.La Guardia offered police escorts (!) to airport car services to try to make the service work. At LaGuardia’s urging American Airlines tried operating flights to Floyd Bennett Field in Southeast Brooklyn, but it was farther from Manhattan than Newark.Whether or not ‘Newark airport’ is really New York has been a top of some controversy since 1934, when New York City’s mayor Fiorello La Guardia pulled a stunt refusing to get off of a TWA flight from Chicago at Newark airport because his ticket said his destination was New York.
