I remember discussion in 1989 or so of extending the 7 to NJ. At the time, being young, I believed it. Now, I only believe what I actually see- I was surprised that SAS Phase 1 got done.But now, that they did in fact, extend the 7 but turn the tracks southwards, like you said, extending it to NJ wouldn't even make sense.I can think of many projects that I'd like to see. But since resources are limited, I think the most practical effort "they" can make would be a full-length SAS, using as much existing infrastructure as possible- the portions already built above 96th St, the tunnel under the apartment building in Chinatown, and the unused capacity in the Nassau/Centre Street line. Yes, I know that would limit the t to 8-car trains. That would still be better than the existing service level- no? A 10th Ave subway would also be nice- but it's a pipe dream for now. |
