That said, if money was no object, building a museum on a deck over CIY could work out well. Lots of space, and close proximity to the largest subway yard and the largest subway terminal.The current Transit Museum is perfect the way it is, with gallery display space, a movie theater and two tracks for equipment display. Also the downtown Brooklyn location is perfect since it is in a decommissioned actual station with actual tower. The Transit Museum should stay right where it is and if the Rockaway Line needs extra service then takeover the abandoned Rockaway Line before the Rail 2 Trail freaks confiscate it. Run the (V) to the Rockaways or whatever. As far as the SAS goes, forget a tunnel to Brooklyn and terminate it at Chambers St. Plenty of subways, the Municipal Bldg. and City Hall to boot.
