Home<N.Y.C. Subway Stations<Morgan Ave/Canarsie Line

Morgan Avenue is another two-side platform Canarsie Line station with its own little quirks. It also has platform columns that are tiled over (meaning they are under buildings and not streets), with Morgan Av in mosaic form in all of them, although in many some of the pieces of mosaic have fallen out or are in quite bad shape. The stations trim (with Ms in it) and name tablets are a fairly warm brown color. The station has two entrances/exits. The full time one is accessed via long ramps at the extreme western ends of both of the platforms and is the main full service entrance to Morgan Avenue/Hanson Place. There is a fully unstaffed exit towards the other end of the platform. It has a couple of High Exit Gates and one High Entrance turnstile, the staircase to this exit lead directly up to street level where fare control is in a small brick building with doors right out to the street.
