December 29, 2016

    It’s a Christmas miracle! The MTA has repeatedly promised that the Second Avenue subway will , and after seeing the of the new stations, it seems like it will actually come true. Nearly a century after the East Side line was initially proposed, its first phase will really, truly make its debut.

    The very first train will depart from the 96th Street station on January 1 at 6:04am. So unfortunately, you won’t be able to use it to get home after your New Year’s Eve celebrations—unless you make it a very, very long night. But it’s your one chance to ride the subway while it’s still shiny and new, before it becomes germ-infested Petri dish.
    Getting a sneak peek, Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio will take a on the new Q line train on December 31 at 10:30pm. Please keep it clean for the rest of us, you guys.
