If you notice, the entrances along Pitkin are in the cross streets, not on Pitkin itself except for Euclid. Getting back to the possible setbacks, since it seems that Pitkin Av/Old South Rd east of Ruby St were realigned possibly around the time of the subway construction and according to some 1951 photos, there were no sidewalks built in the area at the time, Its highly likely, as I mentioned in several posts, that by the time sidewalks were installed, the city had abandoned any plans for using whatever might have been constructed and thus the sidewalks were installed without any provision whatsoever for subway entrances. That could explain why there are no sealed entrances in the area since they were probably never there in the first place. |
