Rockaway Av was the terminal of the Fulton St Subway long before construction started beyond that point. That was because there were several proposals for the location of the subway beyond that point none of which had been agreed upon till unification in 1940. If a final route had been decided on before then, it’s likely that the entire subway would have been completed before US involvement in WWII. As it was, since construction on the finalized route was not started until 1940 or maybe even slightly later it wasn’t able to be completed until after the end of the war. |
