191 Street (1) - Photos Page 2

The unique subway entrance at the top of Fort George Hill, set back from the storefronts, a simple station sign and two very unusual green globes hanging from the awning area

The upper elevator landing, no doors seperate the elevators from the elements, there is also a countdown clock before people even enter the elevators (including the time it takes to ride the elevators probably the fastest you could reasonably get down to the platforms would be in 2 or 3 minutes)

A close up of the countdown clock and the locked gate that prevents access to a secondary landing for two of the elevators (the elevators still have two sets of doors)

Back down in the lower landing area a sign for the one train or the tunnel exit to Broadway

After fare control on the small overpass area before the platforms.

Old and new technology for alerting passengers of the next train a countdown clock installed within the last year and the beeper alert for the next train that is at least twenty years old

The staircase down to the Uptown platform with its mosaic mural behind it

The split of the staircase down to the uptown platform the lights of the mezzanine and the station tracks are visible

Another view of the small intermediate landing before reaching the uptown platform at 191 Street

A name tablet and countdown clock between the two staircases down to the uptown platform

An added in 2003 191 Street name tablet that tries to conform with the tradition of the station

The exits at 191 Street are right in the middle of the platform, as evident by the the zebra stripes conductors okay to open doors board and the sign on the column reminding them not to open at Dyckman Street since the stop is closed for rehabilitation

The wall trim and 191 beneath it

An end of the uptown platform

Looking across the tracks at 191 Street

A pre-mural view of the Broadway Station entrance

The Broadway Station entrance with small signs saying that no trains are running, the best thing to do what be to walk one block to Haven Avenue and use the tunnel to the A train at 190 Street

Looking towards the taped off turnstiles and signage because no trains are running due to station work
