[PHOTOS] Re: Original Sea Beach Route-What Is Gold St.?

I remember seeing a line drawing of a loop between Gold St/Myrtle Av station and the Manhattan Bridge under Flatbush Ave Ext. for turning trains back, ducking under the tracks heading to the bridge. Not sure if it got finished or even built, and if built, what vestiges of it remain.
I wonder if these next two George Abere Jr. images may have something to do with the loop.
I heard that the proposed loop was destroyed when the DeKalb Abe rebuilding and Myrtle Ave station shutdown occurred.
