On Feb 9 (today) Rich Wisneski posted a picture f the east ortal of the Erie's tunnel, showing three concrete "capstones" with engraved captions which mention Daniel Drew, Long Dock Company, and Bergen Tunnel. Interesting.

Well, some one else pointed out to me that the web site states it's the east portal, which when I went back and looked, was correct. My mistake for missing that. I guess that's why I said it just didn't fit as being the west portal. The topography does fits the East portal better, but I remember the East portal having a big inscription about the Long Dock Company inscribed in it's head stone, which means the East end has also been altered.
