Based on observation made at the IND subway tunnel bulkhead wall under Pitkin Avenue in the vicinity of the Sunrise Highway emergency exit, the tunnel walls end in poured concrete bulkhead walls with vertical I beams much like how the the J line Archer Subway tunnel ends just east of the terminal's station.

I find it very difficult to believe that a four track subway station was built, and connected with only with a two track yard lead (Tracks A7 & A8) from Pitkin yard and not the main line. Were there tracks laid on to the A7 & A8 trackways (Now K5 & K6) for the purpose of relaying train on a yard move, but into a station, even a partially built station, I some how can not accept that theory based on a recent observation.
