Underpass Site Change Deemed Impossibility
City attorney Fred Schatzmann says changing the underpass site for Neibar Street is impossible due to prior commitments. A proposed 100 foot shift could lower costs, but the current tentative route aligns with Nelbar Street extension and Shafer Street east of the NYC tracks, with a small land purchase from P Loriliard and Company for right of way. A special committee may propose an alternate plan, pending New York Central approval.
