One picture is here: https://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?95438. The caption suggests that the new #7 line went through the "unused sub-sub basement" of the Port Authority Bus Terminal. I wonder if that is an additional clue to the reason for building the lower level of 8 Ave/42 St; perhaps the Port Authority had plans that never came to fruition (like the freight tunnel it was chartered to build) that the lower level would have helped serve. |
