Also, are you actually advocating that trains terminate in Chatham Sq.?Yes. Just north of Chatham the (T) will diverge from the (U/Y) and go under Park Row, then double stack and connect into the Nassau stacks of the (J/Z). The (U/Y) will descend to a Lower Level under Chatham Square where they can build a terminal with turnaround capacity of at least 18-20 TPH just like the new South Ferry. Provisions can be built to further extend the line to Water St. As for your comment in another post referring to archaeological findings, my alignment bypasses the African Burial Grounds. OTOH, I'm sure you know that Water St was once the actual riverfront street in Manhattan. Everything east of there is landfill. It will be an archaeological feast once the digging starts there especially near South St Seaport and Old Slip where the two stations would be dug out. |
