Sorry if this has already been posted:

Main news seems to be that they're giving up on the 3rd track at 72nd, making it into a normal 2-track, island platform station. What next - a single track shuttle from 63rd/Lex to 96th?

Careful who you mention that to. MTA might seriously considering that.

This has been posted before, but it's significant news, so well worth discussing. Don't worry about reposting.

Construction costs are skyrocketing and the citizens want the subway built within the budget available (otherwise there's no subway at all). The three-track 72nd St design is nice to have but by no means mandatory for the most important SAS service patterns. A few of the obsessive types here might bellyache about it, but most people don't care. They care that the train line gets built, and reducing the size of the station will save a huge amount of money..

Nope. He's right. We've told you this many, many times. But you refuse to listen. Your loss.
