The Dinkins Administration DOT drew up a wish list in 1993 which included just such a tunnel but with IND connections:From "Developing a Long Range Transportation Plan" pages 86 and 87: "It would run from a connection with the IND system in lower Manhattan, under New York Bay to St. George and a connection with the Staten Island Rapid Transit line to Tottenville, which would become part of the subway system. The connection point in Manhattan could either be with the Eighth Avenue line's stub-end terminal in the World Trade Center, or with the Second Avenue line at the southeastern corner of the Financial District." |
