I don't know how long the Broadway paving project will take, but if
you miss it, there is a permanent exhibit located in 12th
Avenue between 125th Street and St Clair Place, that is, almost under
the Riverside Drive Viaduct. This is a turning loop built in
1910 at the end of the 125th Street crosstown line that has never been
paved over, probably since it is in a "safety zone" between traffic
lanes that have been repaved.
It's the same thing as on Broadway: paving stones, rusty iron
rails, a conduit slot, pairs of insulator manholes every 5 feet. It
also features some curvature and a long narrow hatch at one
point along the conduit.
