As a road, Chrystie Street extends northward beyond Houston Street to become Manhattan's Second Avenue, and to date the Chrystie Street Connection's two parts are the only part of the long-planned Second Avenue Subway to be completed and opened to service.

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or connection:
“I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
“Self-expression is not enough; experiment is not enough; the recording of special moments or cases is not enough. All of the arts have broken faith or lost connection with their origin and function. They have ceased to be concerned with the legitimate and permanent material of art.”
—Jane Heap (c. 1880–1964)
