At least some provisions were built under Flatbush Ave. Ext.. Found a description in old posts and elsewhere online.*copyclipped from old post* After crossing the Manhattan Bridge (south side - N/Q trains), as soon as you enter the tunnel landing in Brooklyn, you see a wide open space, most likely a trackway, coming in on the right. You all see a similar space ahead of you on the left. This was from the front window perspective. This can also be seen between DeKalb Avenue and the portal to the Manhattan Bridge (Near the abandoned Myrtle Avenue station). From a paper I bought years ago about trackways on the BMT, these bellmouths were supposed to have been a provision for turning trains (a loop). I'm thinking that either that's all there is, or the loop concrete work was done and then left it at that. Maybe I'll ask SuperCop. |
