Posted by randyo on Sat May 21 14:45:38 2016, in response to Re: Schermerhorn Street Tunnel Question, posted by Express Rider on Sat May 21 03:08:34 2016. From the few plans I have seen, the S 4 St subway was supposed to come from the 2 middle tracks at 2 Av/Hstn and the tracks coming from the bellmouths S/O Canal and passing over E Bway. 4 tracks (which ones weren’t really clear) would go down Stuyvesant/Utica and the other 2 would go east along Bushwhack Av and eventually along Myrtle and joining with the proposed subway coming from Roosevelt upper. The Utica subway would have emerged onto an el structure in the area of Ave M and continued farther south into the Marine Pk area possibly going across Ave S and down Nostrand to join with the extension of the IRT Nostrand Av Line which would also have been elevated at that point. As for the Fulton St subway, I have a preliminary plan showing the Fulton St subway continuing straight out Fulton past Bway Jct rather than swinging south to Pitkin. I have also seen proposals for the Fulton subway to swing east along Liberty Av instead of the present Pitkin Av routing. In all of the 3 scenarios, the outer end of the Fulton subway was to connect to the Liberty Av structure of the Fulton St el which it eventually did. |
