Re: My Route Suggestion of the Old Abandoned LIRR Rockaway Beach Branch

Queens Blvd can afford to loose a lane in each direction.

Yes, but where does this LRV go? Just along Queens Blvd? Isn't there already subway in the area? Seems useless to me.

Woodhaven Blvd, though with the Rockaway ROW so close, the Rockaway ROW would be a much better choice.

Right, the Rockaway ROW would be a better choice for a Heavy Rail line that would be able to run directly into manhattan using existing tunnels.

I'm sure there are a few places in the Bronx where they can squeeze in LRT. Possibly in Brooklyn as well, especially if/when they sink the Gowanus.

We aren't talking about places where it will merely fit. We're talking about places where it makes sense to put it. None of these places you mentioned fit that description.
