Building a subway along Arch St and the Parkway would be a better idea since it's inside Center City as opposed to the City Branch, IMHO.

There was a subway tunnel begun in anticipation of an Arch Street line, with sections dug between 10th-11th and between 12th-13th Streets. The tunnel sections are still largely in tact. so to connect the Arch Street tunnel with the City Branch seems already halfway done.
