Lexington Ave was The Queens Bypass Mainline station, and prime interchange/transfer for the new subway routes to the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and lower Manhattan.
It's deep because of the Lexington Ave Express tunnels, and Metro North under Park Ave.
It is there essentially due to the fact that a station could not be built at Second Ave, And facilitate a connection with the new subway running under that street.
So Third Ave given an entry to bring riders as close as possible.
It Is therefore a Semi SAS station, but not directly Under Second Ave.
