New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, who recently scrapped the plan to build a new NJ Transit tunnel from New Jersey to Midtown, said he would consider using state funds to extend the 7 train over to Secaucus. He said on a radio show, "It would actually connect us to the east side of Manhattan...go through Penn Station like we always wanted to, at what appears to be less of a cost, and with New York bearing part of the burden for that project." He has yet to speak to Bloomberg about the plan, but this brings us one step closer to subway access to the 182nd best place to live in New Jersey.
