I don't think the LIRR extension is at all useless; what's useless is that the lower level of the 63rd St Tunnel has sat unused for these decades. At most, it threatens to be counterproductive to the Lexington Av Line if SAS isn't enough completed to bear some of the UES ridership burden from the 4/5/6 routes. But ESA is far from useless.

With regard to the Fulton St project, while I think that it was a worthy goal to have some landmark-ish building to call a station - not that it's terribly hard to find your way into the complex nowadays, with so many entrances - the costs of the project became way too extravagant for that modest objective
