Two quick updates on the City’s two major subway projects – one positive, one less so:

#7 – Tunnel excavation has completed mining!  The extension of the #7 subway line from its current terminus, 42nd Street and 7th Avenue, to its new end point, 34th Street and 11th Avenue, is well on its way thanks to a completed tunnel excavation.

2nd Ave – 2nd Avenue Subway excavation is reported to have technical difficulties that may result in additional delay to the projected 12/2016 completion date for the East 63rd to 96th Street Phase

These two subway projects are expected to significantly alter land use and development in their respective neighborhoods.  We will keep you posted as these projects progress.
