There’s no elevators?? That sucks. There is gonna be an elevator at 111st though; so glad they’re making one tbh

Yep, these renovations tend to focus on the station itself (e.g. walls, concrete, roof, etc.) ADA renovations tend to only renovate the section of the station where the elevator would be located.

that intro is awesome and glad they finished with the Manhattan platform time to rebuilt the other platform i want to ask how come they only closing one side platform and not 2

Because it would cause problems for people that use those stations
