Cross-Harbor Highway Tunnel
AfDs for this article: 
 * – (View AfD) (View log)

None of the issues brough up in the first AFD, over a year ago, have been corrected. This is still an unreferenced proposal with no serious consideration. Don't let the references fool you; almost all of them are either proposals by other "non-notable" people, references about the Cross-Harbor Rail Tunnel, or references to other projects for the author's cost analysis. Basically, the only thing that is not original research is that a truck tunnel was briefly studied during planning for the rail tunnel, but was determined to be infeasible. --NE2 06:19, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per well-reasoned nomination. If a proposal for a construction project was never was anywhere near being accepted, let alone built, it is of very little interest in the long run. If it is (or was) a serious alternative among many, then it might receive some mention in the article about the project which was eventually built, but a separate article is too much. Merely having an idea aired, considered, then rejected, is flimsy grounds for an article. Sjakkalle (Check!)  07:29, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete This is basically fan fic for transportation geeks. Though the idea of a tunnel from New Jersey to Brooklyn is WP:INTERESTING, it doesn't merit an article of its own until such a project is under serious consideration. szyslak  09:28, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
