From some of the documentation I have seen, the SAS was supposed to connect to 2 branch lines in the Bronx one up Alexander Av and Morris Pk Ave and the other, along some street I can’t remember up to the East Bronx near Unionport. The Concourse connection to the 8 and eventually the 6 Av line was intended as a replacement for the 6 and 9 Av els which went up Jerome Av. I never heard anything about a 2 Av “roadway” just a subway and I haven’t seen any documentation about any constructed 4 track portion of it or any station in lower Manhattan. Where is your documentation? The outer portions of the Bx lines were to be elevated and one of them, I believe the Morris Pk Av branch was to have connected with the proposed extension of the Concourse Line east of 205 St. Plans were modified after the city took over the NYW&B ROW to drop the Morris Pk Av Line and instead connect the SAS to the Dyre Line including the portion of the ROW between Harlem River and E 180. |
