History
Buses began serving the Roosevelt Field Mall around the time of the center's opening in 1956. By the early 1960s, as demand grew, additional bus services began serving the mall, stopping at the original bus terminal on the west side of the mall.[7][8][9]
In 1965, Schenck Transportation Co. – at the time one of Nassau County's major bus operators – provided express bus service between Roosevelt Field & various other points in Nassau County and the 1964 New York World's Fair in Flushing Meadows–Corona Park, Queens.[10]
In 1991, the present bus terminal opened on the south side of the mall, having been relocated from the west side.[6][11] This move came when the mall was undergoing a major expansion project, which included the addition of its second floor.[6][11] The relocated facility would also simplify the bus routes through the area, as previously, several buses serving the mall had to travel most of the way around the center to enter the terminal.[6][11]
