A Second Avenue line that uses Nassau Street would suffer the same problem: People coming from uptown wouldn't want to go to Nassau Street while people from Brooklyn would prefer other lines that get them to Midtown faster and in a more useful part of Midtown. Second Avenue is still mostly residential.

Water Street is a more useful route. It is closer to more modern office buildings that will still be office buildings for some time. Many of the buildings in the traditional Wall Street core are being converted to residences. Also, being farther away from the other subway lines downtown, it has more to differentiate itself than Nassau. There is more of an incentive for people along Third Avenue (people who are equidistant to the SAS and Lex) to ride the SAS to Water than the SAS to Nassau.
