You'll finally be able to transfer from the R to the A in Brooklyn without going aboveground and taking a short walk around Downtown!

This is almost as exciting as when the G train finally went to Fourth Avenue!
And it only cost $160 million! (That includes the pricetag for overhauling the Jay Street station.) Because the MTA has money when it wants to have money...
