The Staten Island Tunnel is an abandoned, incomplete railway/subway tunnel in New York City. It was intended to connect railways on Staten Island (precursors to the modern-day Staten Island Railway) to the BMT Fourth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway, in Brooklyn. ==Other names== Officially called the Brooklyn-Richmond Freight and Passenger Tunnel,〔 the Staten Island Tunnel is referred to by four other names: * The Narrows Tunnel, after the Narrows, the body of water it was supposed to run under;〔 * The Saint George Tunnel, after one of its terminals in St. George, Staten Island〔 (not to be confused with the tunnel between the terminal and the Tompkinsville station);〔 * The Hylan Tunnel, after former New York City Mayor John Hylan, who oversaw the project.〔 It has also been referred to as Hylan's Holes in both derogatory and endearing contexts.
