There might be some unknown difficulty. It's been 80 years and it has not been seriously considered other than the building of the WTC ( not Chambers St) platform.I can't imagine what the engineering issue might be. The IND platform was purpose built to connect to the BMT Broadway line at Cortlandt St. The leveling, the angle, even the I-beams are set up so that the tracks can be extended and all that would have to be removed is the wall separating the two stations. I am even willing to bet that the tracks were built to be angled in such a way that there would be no need for platform reconstruction inside the Cortlandt St, BMT station. |
