I forget why those platforms were much longer than the ones on the southbound side. However this part of the 6th Ave. line was difficult and expensive to build due to the other existing tunnels in the area including the BMT line, the PRR, and one of the city's water tunnels. The 6th Ave. elevated was still running until 1938 and it had to be underpinned too while the subway which would replace it was being built underneath it. |
