Re: A Proposal

A number of cities (Moscow, Beijing, Shanghai off the top of my head) have loop lines that avoid the historic city centers.
Hong Kong has multiple lines that miss both Kowloon and Central.
Some of those lines do hit newer and tertiary business centers, similar to how the G hits downtown Brooklyn and Long Island City.


I do think the biggest issue the G has a lack of connections in Downtown Brooklyn.
I know the history of what the IND was trying to do, but it was still amazingly shortsighted to avoid the subway stations that were already owned by the city and could be recaptured at some point.

Unfortunately, the past is the past, and I can't think of any real solutions to the G that will not make the overall system worse off.
