Now pay close attention.There are bellmouths on the 8th Ave local tracks, just south of Canal Street. These were to be part of the Second IND System. They were to go beneath Thomas Street, heading East. Open them up, and bore through, and connect to the Lower Level of the Broadway Line. Restore the Lower Level Station at Chambers St. Merge the upper level, and lower level ramps south of the Station, and continue south to Cortland St. You still retain the WTC Terminal for the "E", and get a connection for through service for "E" to "R" and the benifit of G.O. flexibility. |
