That I obviously didn't know, however:

The first priority would be to get it to Roosevelt Island with as noted a new tunnel that would come into Manhattan on 76th or 79th street, with 79th street the preferred point and a stop at York-1st Avenues that would give those riders subway access without in a lot of cases having to walk a considerable distance (again, even with the SAS). Then I would figure out how to work it so you can use the never-used upper level of Roosevelt Avenue as a terminal for a new Queens Blvd. super express.

Actually, the latter might be a way to totally re-do that area, with a new mezzanine for the Roosevelt Avenue station as well as coverting the 74th street station on the 7 that connects to it into a two-island platform express station that would eventually allow for transfers from the 7 to the E/F/R/V as is the case now and the super express.
