E 332 H & L 175 still catching some work
 
There was a period of time back in the late 60's/early 70's when 3700 series boxes were used to fill in "gaps" in coverage. The boxes mentioned above are an example as is 3762 at Bedford & Montgomery (in the Ebbits Field Houses) area. So you will see these boxes all over the place.

Not to get off topic, but I wondered why although Coney Island is 3500 box series - certain addresses on Bayview Avenue near Neptune the box is 3977.
 
3700s are in varying locations in BKLYN...3755 = Evergreen & Green Aves...3756 = Evergreen Ave & Palmetto St....3757 = Varet & White Sts....3758 ( formerly Cook & Morrell ) now 7 Ave & 92 St...3759 = Eastern Pkwy Extension & Somers St.....3760 = Eastern Pkwy & Ralph Av....3762 = Montgomery St & Bedford Ave....3763 = Riverdale Ave & Amboy St.......some more along Prospect Park also.

Chief, assuming in the days of the bells when a 3700 tapped in, everyone had to listen up?
