Not really a bellmouth, but there's a very noticeable setback in the Queensbound wall at the extreme southern end of City Hall. It may indicate that the BMT Broadway Line was intended to continue due south on Broadway rather than curving west under Saint Pauls Church and south to follow Trinity Place.No, IIRC, this is a result of the original plan for the upper level to terminate there and through trains to use the lower level.
