The reason it took so long to open was because of WWII. All construction stopped during the war years, and they couldn't get metal for the tracks and signalling systems.
This is also true for the Broadway-East New Your (Broadway Junction) to Euclid section of the Fulton St subway. It wass all done waiting to be used, except they couldn't lay track or install the signalling system.
