The Worlds Fair line was ncessary for the fair, and the Pitkin line (as well as Wast New York station) was already built before the war. Bway East New York was all tiled and a full station, even before the war. They just didn't have the metal to make it function. Shephard, Van Siclen, Liberty, and Euclid stations shells were also all built and ready to go, although there was a lot more finishing work to be done than they had to do at Bway East New York, but the tunnels and shells were all built before we got involved in the war. |
