All good for people at Willis Ave. but I thought that pedestrian overpass was going to be built at Main St. replacing the grade crossing that's being permanently closed.

t's odd, they didn't have a pedestrian walkway in the blueprints for School Street, unless I'm mixing that up with the blueprints for Willis Avenue next year.

Sunnyside was never designed to transfer to GCT. It was only for Penn Station trains. Besides the documentation from the MTA (linked below), look at its position on a map. It was placed after the cutoff to GCT. https://books.google.com/books?id=USs3AQAAMAAJ&pg=SA2-PA42&lpg=SA2-PA42&sourc...

Based on the photos, the line was still under construction and it was just a temporary ramp down to the tracks.
