EAB posted:That sounds like the original ARC proposal - to build a new station underneath Macy's. That proposal has been dead for many years. My understanding of the current plan is that they would expand Penn Station to the south with additional tracks that would give most or all of the station access to and from both sets of tubes.
It seems to me that any new tunnels would have to provide direct access to existing tracks in Penn Station so that trains could continue into the East River Tunnels and onto the New York Connecting Railroad (Hellgate Bridge) and the Northeast Corridor into New England and Boston.
