Does anyone know the historical reason why the BMT Nassau Street extension was built at Fulton Street station the way it was -- with the southbound track over the northbound platform. If the two levels had the platforms aligned over each other, then transfer could have been a simple stairway -- but no, you have to go down onto the IND [A] platform and walk in what seems to be an illogical direction to reach the other level bound for Jamaica.When I go home at night, I walk up John Street, turn north onto Nassau and find the stairs near Wendy's (almost at Fulton Street), then down to the turnstiles and down again. |
