As originally planned, the IND was to be connected via a ramp and portal from under the LIRR ROW in the vicinity of Old Aqueduct station. The subway was to pass through the much discussed 76 St station and continue under Pitkin Ave which was actually a renamed portion of Old South Rd. When further construction under Pitkin Av was halted for whatever reason, the B of T decided to make the connection off the reclaimed portion of the Fulton St el S.O Rockaway Blvd creating Liberty Jct as we now know it. The change seems to have been made in the 2 years between 1948 when the subway opened to Euclid and the model board in the tower showed the Pitkin subway going past 76 St, and 1950 when a B of T report on proposed subway lines showed the connection S/O Rockaway Blvd on the el. |
