If you think about it, had the 63 Dr connection (Whitepot jct) to the LIRR ROW been built from the IND Q/Blvd Line, the route to the Rockaways from Manhattan would certainly have been more round about than the present configuration. Imagine traveling from downtown or midtown Manhattan through Jackson Hts and Woodhaven and then almost doubling back S/B through Richmond Hill to get to Rockaway, yet if the orignal IND plans had come to fruition, that is exactly what would have happened. The present line configuration is more direct since although Rockaway is legally in Queens, it is physically south of the borough of Brooklyn. |
