Exactly!!Most of us have been saying PHASE THREE, NOT PHASE FOUR for the Nassau connection! The Nassau Connection would be Phase 3 so the SAS does not dead-end at Houston Street. That would have it likely joining the Nassau line at The Bowery while Phase 4 is being built. By the time Phase 4 is ready, it could be there is enough demand to keep the Nassau connection of Phase 3 as a permanent regular line, plus obviously having such available for G.O.'s on the Broadway line that the Q and R can use for instance. As for the issues in Southeast Queens, yes that also is needed, and I have said myself many times what I would do there extend the E/J/Z lines in Queens all the way to Belmont Park, where there could be a HUGE terminal/underground yard under the parking lot on the backstretch there that can also on big race days (i.e. Belmont Stakes Day for instance). This can make Belmont Park a huge park-and ride facility for those coming from Nassau County as well as be very attractive since by the time this was built, Belmont Park will likely be a "racino" with Video Lottery Terminals. |
