| 释义 |
He was chief engineer for the Pennsylvania Railroad's New York City East River projects, which built tunnels carrying four lanes of track between Manhattan and Queens. Amtrak, the Long Island Railroad, and New Jersey Transit continue to run trains through these tunnels well into their second century of use.[4] He was president of the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1903, and in 1929, the society established the Alfred Noble Prize in his honor (not to be confused with the Nobel Prize).[5] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=http://quod.lib.umich.edu/b/bhlead/umich-bhl-852070?rgn=main;view=text|title=Alfred Noble Papers at the Bentley Historical Library, University of Michigan|last=|first=|date=|website=quod.lib.umich.edu|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2017-04-28}} {{Presidents of the American Society of Civil Engineers|state=collapsed}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Noble, Alfred}}{{US-engineer-stub}}2. ^{{Cite journal|last=Weingardt|first=Richard G.|date=|title=Alfred Noble: Special Consultant to Presidents and Governments (ASCE Biography)|url=http://ascelibrary.org/doi/full/10.1061/(ASCE)LM.1943-5630.0000247|journal=Leadership and Management in Engineering|language=en|publisher=American Society of Civil Engineers|volume=13|issue=4|pages=282–289|doi=10.1061/(asce)lm.1943-5630.0000247}} 3. ^{{cite book|title=The Path Between the Seas|date=1977|publisher=Simon & Schuster Paperbacks|year=|isbn=978-0671-24409-5|location=New York|pages=|last1=McCullough|first1=David}} 4. ^{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1Vs5AAAAMAAJ&pg=PA79#v=onepage|title=History of the Engineering Construction and Equipment of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's New York Terminal and Approaches|last=Brace|first=James|publisher=Isaac H.
