Overlooked yesterday:
The No. 7 extension west is getting more expensive. MTA documents released yesterday show the estimated full project cost is now $2.153 billion up from $2.053 billion last month, a 5% increase.
A footnote in the document says the city will cover the increase -- but remember the city only pays if it can buy the West Side Yards.

I still don't know why the "L" train isn't extended to the Javits Center. The #7 is overcrowded as it is. The BMT cars are longer and wider and could accomadate more riders.
