The Lower Manhattan–Jamaica/JFK Transportation Project effectively died with the Pataki administration. The estimates had grown to almost $10 billion, and Spritzer and Paterson had other priorities.I looked at the enginering drawings again, and they would be even more expensive and complicated today. All of the options made extensive use of empty lots in Brooklyn that now have 8-30 story builings on them. Personal note: the building I used to live in (built around 2009) would have been the site of the main entrance and ancillery/vent building for the new station under Atlantic Avenue between 4th and 3rd. |
