2Line1291 Posted March 21, 2011 Share #2 Posted March 21, 2011 I'm glad that the is notifying us on any progress. June 2014 seems far off but it's reasonable considering this affects 12 subway lines and residents of Lower Manhattan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vistausss Posted March 22, 2011 Share #4 Posted March 22, 2011 Can they make that date? N:( . Wow dude, hang on. It's not always easy to make a date, but June 2014 seems doable to me. I'm pretty sure that if things go like they go now, they can easily make it by that date (or maybe even 1-2 months earlier). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortline Bus Posted March 22, 2011 Share #5 Posted March 22, 2011 I always felt this new Fulton Transit Center was a waste. The had already done major works at this complex in the early/mid-1990's. I am fully aware this was monies from 9/11 congressional funding awarded by the feds. This project should have been much more smaller scale. The only monies needed was improvements to the platforms to the and and and lines. And a walking transfer between Fulton TC and the Corlandt ®/WTC Path would had been much more cheaper. Yet dozens of stations such as *cough* almost all of the Bronx stations and Sea Beach stations have not been fixed up in decades. Just my takes.

Vistausss Posted March 22, 2011 Share #6 Posted March 22, 2011 @Shortline Bus: But good things are happening as well: "This fall the southbound platform of the Cortlandt Street R Station will be reopened, restoring a vital link in Lower Manhattan to residents, businesses, and visitors alike."

dman1455 Posted March 23, 2011 Share #7 Posted March 23, 2011 When I was younger I actually got lost trying to get from the 4 train to the J.. The transit center would help a lot for other commuters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are never on time. Giving a completion date is a joke. They are rushing it to make the deadline and then some SURPRISE problems occurred suddenly..(cough)NEW South Ferry station(/cough) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoTimer Posted March 25, 2011 Share #13 Posted March 25, 2011 We all thought on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 something would be complete on the site (not the transit center per say, but at least the building). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted March 26, 2011 Share #14 Posted March 26, 2011 Look at the WTC.....should have been done by now... Kinda apples to oranges. With the WTC, you had the families still claiming the enitre 16 acre site should've been a 'graveyard' and the PA still struggling to get tennants to fill up the floor space [which to replicate the total floor space of the entire complex post 9/11 would be pretty much impossible]. What the PA should've done from the start was to build towers 2-4 east of Greenwich street. 1 WTC as symbolic as it is, is not really needed.

3rd Avenue El Posted March 27, 2011 Share #16 Posted March 27, 2011 is it true that the transit center is going to have island platforms so you can switch from one train to the other with out walking through complicated hallways? you know you can switch from the to the across the platform know what im saying? just like Queensboro plaza. is it going to be like that. or will we still have to walk through complicated mezzanines and hallways?

3rd Avenue El Posted March 27, 2011 Share #18 Posted March 27, 2011 i saw a preview the showed on fox 5 on how the station was going to look like when they first introduced the fulton street transit center project to the public. the preview showed that all tracks where connected by island platforms with walkways overhead to make transfer much more easier. but then again that was concept art.

Rell Posted March 31, 2011 Share #22 Posted March 31, 2011 is it true that the transit center is going to have island platforms so you can switch from one train to the other with out walking through complicated hallways? you know you can switch from the to the across the platform know what im saying? just like Queensboro plaza. is it going to be like that. or will we still have to walk through complicated mezzanines and hallways? they'd have to rearrange too many tracks, if that was even a reasonable idea.
