Midtown West and Hudson Yards bring development (for better or worse) way further West than previously considered commercially viable. As bad a the current station is, the non existence of a direct PS to GCT link (not realistic in the manner/era the stations came about), and the failure to put in the 10th Ave station on the 7 line extension are probably bigger crimes against our future economy. The modern era history of NYC has been to trade off our future for short term gains. There are a myriad of examples of things we did or failed to do that could have benefited us for the long term. It just has not been the NYC way. Not just us, you can bang your head against the wall in Boston if you have to go from South to North Station! |
