I said:>>My view as noted before on this is had the EL remained, it would have likely seen two rebuilds:>> >>The first in the late 1950s-early 1960s after the Park Row branch is redirected and becomes the Chambers Street Branch, This would have likely strengthened the line considerably to allow for 10-car trains and with it, consolidation of stations like this in Manhattan:>> >>47th & 53rd Street both eliminated and replaced by a new stop at 50th Street>> That should have been changed to 47th simply being eliminated and 42nd moved north with a new exit at 44th Street (but also at the south end with a transfer to the (7) and all the other lines there). Likewise, 53rd would have been rebuilt to include a transfer to then the (E) and (F) (and now (E) (M) and (6)) at 53rd. |
