The only place I could see this happening is the lot bounded by Wayne Ave to the North and the main line to the east.

Also; while it makes sense for the 2 and 33 to be extended as they would be just that; extensions north, the 56 shouldn't be extended to WJ. The 56 would either have to abandon 7-9 blocks of its westernmost route or be backtracked from 22nd and Venango up Hunting Park up either Germantown or Clarissa, which just duplicates the 23 and 53. A better idea would be a new route which would be a E/W crosstown feeder for BSL Hunting Park and MFL Church via Hunting Park Ave and Church/Ruan Sts (via Wingohocking over Frankford Creek?) with endpoints at Church and Aramingo and WJ. It's a pretty big service hole as it is and Hunting Park and Church have no true cross-town feeder route.
