Re: Second Roosevelt Island Station/Branch of SAS |

Posted by Wallyhorse on Sun Jan 20 05:24:37 2008, in response to LIRR East Side Access / Roosevelt Island F Station, posted by Roosevelt island 360 on Mon Oct 22 13:17:23 2007. My thought:Perhaps as part of Phase 3 of the SAS, a two-track terminal station could be built on the northern part of Roosevelt Island with a new tunnel that would connect to the SAS at 72nd Street, with the tunnel perhaps built at 73rd that would also have such a branch stop at 73rd street and York-1st Avenues before joining the SAS at the 72nd/2nd and then either continuing on the SAS or going with the Q to Broadway. That stop would be very attractive for those who live on York Avenue and/or next to the FDR Drive (which has a greatly increasing number of people living that far east on the UES) that even with the SAS still will have a considerable walk to get to those stops. |
