Thanks! Not unless you wanna pass the station illegally ( ). But your not gonna see much anyways, just a wall built up.

You know.. historical significance and all that.

 

How did you get a pic?

why is there doors in some of those hallways just past the turnstiles in the Barclays center entrance?

I would assume so that they can close off the station if necessary and just make it a transfer between the IRT platforms.

Even if the stadium is closed it still could be used as an exit to that part of Atlantic Ave (or whatever street is there, Flatbush? I dont know the area that well to know all the streets around there)

That is true, and I remember hearing somewhere that they intended to keep this as a 24/7 exit, so I guess only for emergencies. You are right, although the exit is obviously for the stadium, it is also a means of accessing the surrounding neighborhood.

[mark1447]

For the doors, thats a question myself. But maybe it was originally intended as a part time station. Likely, that changed.

How did you get a pic?

 

 

By just snapping a pix towards the end of the platform, silly! !
