   That's one of the proposals I've seen for extension after the T is   
   complete: a new tunnel connecting to Court St and Hoyt Schemerhorn.

   Can you detail that a bit more?  There's no proposed track connection   
   where the T crosses the A or F, and the right angles (and different   
   depths) in tight spaces would make that difficult to add later.
