From a previous message: "If 18tph of Broadway Brooklyn trains are terminated at Chambers (which is just outside of a CBD,) then 25tph of SAS trains would make it down to Broad St. They have to share the Montague Tunnel with the R train, which runs at 10tph. That means that one of the SAS trains has to terminate at Broad St."

It seems that your definition of CBD is puzzling. If the J-M-Z Chambers Street station is "just outside the CBD" then just what do you called that very tall building that sits on top of the station? Its called the Municipal Building, and near it are 1 Police Plaza, several court buildings, and other office buildings. If that collection of buildings is not a part of a business district

Just for the record, the "central business district" (CBD) has been defined for decades as that area from the bottom tip of Battery Park to 60th Street inclusive in Manhattan. While some may want to point that some sections of that land area contains more residential sections - the definition of CBD never excluded residential sections anyway. In recent years, due to the nature of economic activities in Manhattan some planners wanted to extend the definition of CBD to 86th Street.
