Posted March 18, 200916 yr hot off the press from yesterday, this station just opened the other day. my gosh, it's so clean, blinding white and shiny -- so that's what a subway station is supposed to look like?!! :laugh: http://www.mta.info/capconstr/sft/description.htm early rendering diorama http://www.mta.info/capconstr/sft/battery.htm well here it is...facing the staten island ferry terminal :clap: the si ferry terminal is pretty newly refurbished too here's a small side entrance just to the north a final look back *** so nice to see an actual finished project! ***
March 18, 200916 yr Wow looks way better than when I saw it late last year. I didn't think this would be done until June. They must have had workers down there 24/7!
March 18, 200916 yr so you got an early preview for some reason and i suppose you left your camera in cleveland again? :whip: :roll:

March 18, 200916 yr yeah, yeah you always got an excuse! :whip: :wink: but seriously i would have loved to see it under construction as even the concrete, wiring and etc. on the tunnel and track approach to the station were of course shiny new, too. that was interesting.
March 18, 200916 yr yeah, yeah you always got an excuse! :whip: ;) LMAO! I was a guest. I could have been "difficult" but as you all know that is not my character. :angel:

You're the only person on UO who's even close to being as sweet and innocent as I am. :angel: That place just doesn't look like NY without tagging. You could have at least taken a marker with you.
March 18, 200916 yr Looks nice, but it will be full of dirt and grime in no time with all that white tile.
March 19, 200916 yr Was just in Manhattan last weekend. Took a few pics, but haven't sorted them out yet. Really wanted to go on the SI Ferry, but time did not permit, so missed the new terminal. New York looked great as always, but really empty, compared to previous visits.
