Bushwick (Re: Long Island City...) |

Posted by NIMBYkiller on Sat Apr 7 00:36:52 2012, in response to Long Island City..., posted by aaron on Thu Mar 29 20:30:28 2012. What about running trains into/out of Bushwick? Not that I think it's actually a feasible idea, but it's fun to debate. Bushwick does have a connection to the L, which would be perfect for NYU students on diesel lines (since diesels can not go to ESA where they'd otherwise be able to catch the 6), but other than that, I don't believe there's much of a draw to the 14th St region, or am I wrong? With Bushwick gentrifying and Williamsburg already gentrified right next door, I could see it being a potential reverse peak market to places like Jamaica and western Nassau County.Another option for Bushwick would be if they turned the lower Montauk into LRT, in which case I'd send trains over the Willy B and terminate in the old trolley terminal, even though I'd see that be more of a transfer point than a destination. Again, more of a reverse peak market IMO And lastly, someone here mentioned if lower Montauk were a subway, a branch off the L train running via the Bushwick to Jamaica could work. Opinions? |
