In case anyone very familiar with NYC infrastructure is interested Intentional or not, #1 is wrong. The Battery Park City current diversion affects the southern PATH train tunnel between Exchange Place in Jersey City and the World Trade Center station. Several years ago the Port Authority quietly embarked on a project to dump clay and sand on top of the exposed tunnels and then placed large convex metal plates on top of the new fill to protect the tunnel shells.
