Yes, but I'm thinking more of MIDTOWN, where most people work nowadays anyway:That's where the (T) (even at only 5-7 TPH on weekdays) comes into play. Those working at Rockerfeller Plaza would have a relatively empty one-seat ride on a (T) going there and along 6th Avenue in particular and NYU students who live on the UES would have a one-seat ride to NYU at West 4th and Broadway-Lafayette. Especially in the dead of winter, I think those who work in Rockerfeller Plaza or ANY of the buildings that underground concourse of the 6 1/2 Avenue underground concourse that runs from 51st-54th between 6th Avenue 7th Avenues (and even some buildings that are as far west as 7th Avenue) would prefer to take the (T) and why I would start the split M/T (with what would actually be about a 40% increase in total combined service on 6th Avenue from Metropolitan) with the (M) remaining as it is now and the (T) running 5-7 TPH weekdays, 7-9 TPH weekends (when it would be the only line from Metropolitan) and 3-5 TPH late nights. |
