Some contenders for newest el, some of which are extremely sketchy:

Eastern Parkway Line east of Pennsylvania Avenue - October 16, 1922
Flushing Line east of 103rd Street - January 21, 1928 (had been partly open previously, but there were structural problems and they had to rebuild it)
Culver Line over Gowanus Canal - October 7, 1933
Culver Ramp - October 30, 1954
Fulton Street ramp - April 29, 1956
Rockaway Line - June 28, 1956
Dyre Avenue-White Plans Road connection - May 6, 1957
Rockaway Line last bit to Far Rockaway - January 16, 1958
Jamaica-Archer ramp - December 11, 1988
Franklin Avenue - 1999 (hah!)

Looks like the Flushing Line is the latest one that everyone would agree counts.
