I think that since the older station at South Ferry with the curved platform could become a Manhattan branch of the New York City Transit Museum if the MTA wanted to do so, although the platform extensions would have to be removed in order to accomodate the older subway cars that are 10 feet wide. That would allow the cars that are stored in places other than the Transit Museum in Brooklyn to be moved inside and be displayed to the public.
