Matt91 Posted February 12, 2010 Share #4 Posted February 12, 2010 A majority of the stations need to be renovated, but the can't instantly fix years of neglect all at once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R32 3348 Posted February 12, 2010 Share #5 Posted February 12, 2010 Every Rockaway line station is getting rehabbed, along with every West End station (I think one or two is only getting station work done but those stations have been previously worked on). The Sea Beach stations should be getting rehabbed in the near future.

West End Posted February 12, 2010 Share #6 Posted February 12, 2010 Woot! Certain stations on the line have needed help for years, particularly the fare zone areas underneath each of the platforms. I'm glad it's finally being done. The Sea Beach line should definitely be next. The deserves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamthe1 Posted February 12, 2010 Share #9 Posted February 12, 2010 instead of doing all of these projects at once the should complete the mosty needed projects first! GOSH! like the SAS, screw the extension, and all other upgrades :mad:! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze Posted February 12, 2010 Share #10 Posted February 12, 2010 It seems that they are fixing up mainly elevated/outdoor stations in the past years, which makes sense in that they are more prone to wear-and-tear from wind, salt, rain... The only major underground station renovations of the past 2-3 years I can think of at the moment are Columbus Circle (IRT/IND), Jay St-Boro Hall (IND), and of course the Cortlandt St station on the BMT. Some of the worst-looking underground stations are to be found along the BMT Nassau and IND Crosstown lines, but as long as they are structurally sound and only bad-looking, I guess they won't be fixed up for at least another decade, especially with the low ridership at stations like Bowery (BMT) and Broadway (IND).

East Side Access- should be done; all they need is a fire scare in Penn Station during the height of the rush(!) line extension- it's not even being done properly!!! (no 10 Av station)GRRRR!

38th Street Yard Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share #12 Posted February 15, 2010 While redoing the Sea Beach, they should put a platform over the abandoned track at 62 Street. but the track is in bad shape thats why they put 5 yellow flags and 5 yellow lights north of 8 ave and south of 86 street and it just like going and make local stops anyway.
