Not economically feasible, then or now

"Then" was 1893. There wasn't even a subway then. Stranger projects have been economically feasible; look at the PRR with electrification all the way to DC.

If one were going to build a southern extension Manhattan in great enough acreage, probably one of the better uses would be as a large (mostly international) airport and underground HSR terminal that links our cities

No, that would be insanity. Skyscrapers within takeoff range? A terrorist's dream come true.
