There's been quite a lot in the news about this. They're getting close to finishing the first phase of expansion of the system in Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan up to 86th St. You can see a map of the system here, with planned and active stations; the Upper East and West Sides are the last of it, and they look to be about half done:
