glad you posted these, Peter. But I am surprised you did not include the old architectural elements they've added to the first level, where the token booth is.
Eastern Parkway was the first-ever Parkway in the US, I do believe.
See ya on the 2!

At 3 AM in March 1999 after a party around the corner my girlfriend at the time barfed in this station when we were waiting for a train. I always liked this station. It was the last normal one before things got scary. Back in 1998/1999 this area was not like it is today.

Flashback to 1972 and riding the subway to Bishop McDonnell High School on Eastern Parkway.

Thanks for the memories!
