I know this is has almost 0% chance of happaning but i would make the tunnel for railroads (and reactivate the Northshore line in SI) not subway. This would benefit the NY tristate area in multiple ways.
1. Frieghts can use this crossing from the Hell's Gate Bridge to the Bay Ridge line and use the north shore line to get to Jersey from the east.
2. SIR technically being a RR can use this crossing also and also use the newly activated Northshore line.
-SIR can terminate at 4th Av 59th street where ppl can transfer to the N or R to the city. Time the connections with the Exp N.

Or make a dual level tunnel like 63rd st and make SIR a 100% subway and habe it connect to the 4th ave line at 59th street and continue to the City
