I recently went over to Atlantic Center (to check out the new mall). I went down to the #2 train platform over by the Motorman's position to investigate the condition of the old 'Belmont Spur' (ROW connecting LIRR to the IRT). Seems that the contractors cinderblocked over the ROW and covered it with tiling, so it seems this is now a permanent structure.
There is now no remnant of the original Atlantic Terminal's #6 track connecting with the IRT subway system. Another piece of NY railroading history down the tubes....
