VWM Posted October 19, 2011 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2011 just from your opinion, and where you've actually been. Currently mine is Lexington Av-63 St on the Why? 1) The elevator speaks for itself. 2) Out of System transfer to the sucks. So what's yours?

Roadcruiser1 Posted October 19, 2011 Share #3 Posted October 19, 2011 Chambers Street . The most disgusting subway station in all of NYC. Need I say more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andres Posted October 19, 2011 Share #8 Posted October 19, 2011 3rd Ave-149th Street for me insignificant Stop Since grand concourse is 3 blocks away and Jacks Ave 3 Blocks Away. And no Under/Over Pass to get to the other side for transferring if necessary so i don't know why they call it an express station and the station only has 2 entrances so.........i don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtNovaBusRTS9369 Posted October 19, 2011 Share #9 Posted October 19, 2011 Jamaica Center. It always finds a way to smell like sh*t one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejr88 Posted October 19, 2011 Share #10 Posted October 19, 2011 Station I dislike: Chambers St because it is disguating and the 62nd Street station because of those old stairs. (Yeah they're going to work on it) Least favorite station: Main Street . Those stairs are not wide.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted October 20, 2011 Share #11 Posted October 20, 2011 Bowery on the and and the whole line Even Smith-9th St? = I don't like long corridors such as the 42nd TS-8th Av and 14th 6th-7th Av ones. Also there's 53rd-Lex for the long walk and then the long decent down the stairs/escelator to the crowded platform. I've made a point to avoid that station altogether during rush hours. If going from Manhattan to Queens, I'd rather take the to QP and then transfer to the . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OA Pest Posted October 20, 2011 Share #13 Posted October 20, 2011 Chambers St J/M is the worst by far 34th St F/D/B/N/Q and R is a sauna everyday. Hottest station by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overclocked Posted October 20, 2011 Share #17 Posted October 20, 2011 Canal Street on the and platform... Really, really, needs work The type of work it needs is never going to happen due to the complexity of work it requires. Besides it was rehabilitated just ten years ago, but look at southbound platform, it sure needs work. That's the general problems with rehabs overall, they do not fix structural/water problems, rather focusing more on the visuals. But because the structural problems were not fixed, the rehab looks like complete waste of money few years later. Tiles are falling off, water is dripping and paint is peeling off, most of those problems could be addressed gradually, without rehab, but NO, the ta would rather wait until the station looks like cr@p and rehab it, causing service distruptions and millions of dollars. And don't get me started on excessive use of paint. Just my little rant:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATCOman Posted October 20, 2011 Share #22 Posted October 20, 2011 145 Street on the -- I dislike the fact that trains stop on two levels and this is my home station. 34 Street -- too deep and often times too hot I don't mind any stations in the 42 Street complex, but I don't like that long schlep between the 8th Avenue line and the rest of the stations so I avoid it.

SubwayGuy Posted October 20, 2011 Share #23 Posted October 20, 2011 53rd/Lex. Narrow platform, long climb back to the staircase, only two access points (and one is a narrow escalator) to the transfer...which is also long. Add always crowded to that too.

S78 via Hylan Posted October 20, 2011 Share #24 Posted October 20, 2011 Bowling Green (Well, the Brooklyn Bound Platform) It feels like an oven down there. Sometimes I wait outside the station until the countdown clocks says that a or train is arriving, then go in.
