I wonder why New York didn't make extensive use Chicago-style "alley L's".

The City of Chicago already owned the alleys, and building over the streets would have required consent of the property owners. New York doesn't have City-owned alleys behind buildings, and property owners didn't have to OK building els over the streets.
