NYC brehs: Why are all the nice subway stations only in Queens?

[FunkDoc1112]

I was taking the F Train to Queensbridge and all of a sudden for like 5 straight stops it was like the nicest subways I've ever seen in NYC . Lexington and 21s Street stations especially. shyts like a mansion compared to everywhere else

Those stations you mentioned opened in the late 80s and much newer than the 100 year old stations in the rest of the system.


With that being said, Manhattan IMO got the nicest stations namely Hudson Yards and the Second Ave subway stops... those opened within the past 10 years.

I really really don't even know. Maybe because Queens has a high transit volume of customers.

I remember the train station. On gunhill and white plains road 2 train looked like it was falling apart and the steel was rusting and flaking apart. Whole station would weave back and forth, it's a high ass train station too

Queensbridge is the first stop in queens on the F line.

there is nothing too nice about any of the F train stops under queens Blvd or Hillside Avenue. Lol.


Manhattan has the best subway stations.


Hudson yards
Fulton Street Station
Times Square
57th Street - N/Q
The new 2nd Avenue line - Q
14th street union square.


Ain’t nothing in the outer boroughs nicer than the subways especially the large subways in Manhattan.

Maybe because the F is the express train?

Hudson yards is probably the nicest one in the city …I’m not even sure why they made it so spacious if they don’t utilize any of it

followed by Fulton in Manhattan since they treat it like a mini mall

Barclays station in BK
Lorimer/Metropolitan station

Broadway junction if you want some Mexican snacks or to see a gang fight

nah queens still got some busted ass stations alot of times they dont get any remodeling the G line in queens plaza took a long time to be remodeled. there are many places where the stations still suck

 

[concise]

I wasn't aware of there being any "nice" subway stations.

 

[Da King]

The queens stations are luxury now?

Jamaica Center is Always some fukkery going on over there, so glad I moved outta the hell hole known as Queens

Lexington is in MANHATTAN

And the E train (that takes you to JFK airport) has some bum stops.

Having said that, Queens is the best borough so no wonder it has the best everything.
