Cartoon: 7 train extension in the works

A yearlong study backs the mayor's dream of extending the No. 7 train to New Jersey.

The report, released Wednesday by infrastructure consulting firm Parsons Brinckerhoff, found that a connection between Secaucus, N.J., and the future 11th Avenue stop would be an economic boost to both states. Such an extension would have a daily ridership of 128,000 and improve commuting efficiency.
