I believe you misunderstood a portion of my suggestion,which is okay.I was pointing out how the SAS tail tracks would extend out under the bay just a bit.. Instead of ending it there..why not continue the line to the Atlantic terminal,but with a few more options..like the Crosstown or the Fulton. I don't believe a tunnel to SI from Manhattan would be "cost effective"...WHICH IS WHY I suggested the line could be routed through Brooklyn as originally pointed out in the second system plan of 1939.. Also,the SAS could be routed through NJ along Jersey City to Bayonne,then across the Kill Van Kull to Saint George. The reason as to why I said the Narrows Tunnel should be built like the 63rd st line is simple enough..keeping the FRA out of this. Overall..I think if sections can be built..a bit at a time..eventually we'll get the whole shebang one day if the funding can be found.I seriously recommend the Water st route from Grand street[double crossover or double decked like the Smith street line with ramps between each levels].. In any case,something must be done and I dont see why the earlier studies cant be included.. |
