Re: To el or not to el, that is the question!

That is not really a new el on a "new line", which would in fact be the Liberty El, which was the last "real" el line built.

Huh?

The Liberty Ave. el opened in 1915, nearly three years before the Jamaica Ave. el, and 5 before the Livonia Ave. el.

I believe the newest el structure (aside from the ramp the J uses east of 121st St) is the Flushing line between 111th St and the Main St. portal. It dates to the 1920's.
