Nexis4Jersey, is that Roosevelt Blvd Subway an extension/new branch of of the Broad Street Line? It looks as though it may be...

Ok, I think I answered my own question, and it indeed looks like a new spur off of the Broad Street line. It seems it will follow the US 13 spur of Hunting Park Ave to the Roosevelt Blvd. You know what would be cool? If they could take some techniques from the new Gateway Center LRT stop in Downtown Pittsburgh and incorporate some of those designs to a few stations or so along this extension; have some glass enclosure in the grass median with access points on either side of the outer lanes.
