Someone posted an story from a 1938 edition of the Brooklyn Eagle, years ago. An engineering study showed a high water table, similar to the one under Utica Ave, south of Kings Highway. They said, as I recall, that it would take a lot of extra work to tunnel through Pitkin Ave, east of Grant Ave. In effect, those engineers kicked the can down the road and nobody picked it up. |
