Posted by Handbrake on Sat Aug 24 22:43:59 2013, in response to Re: Essex- After the IND, posted by jabrams on Sat Aug 24 19:17:14 2013. There is a full length mezzanine above the IND Delancy Street station that is used as employee quarters. This includes sealed off stairways to the street along Essex Street.Typical of IND style mezzanine overkill. One interesting example is the 21st Street/Van Alst station of the G. 75% of the station mezzanine is closed off on the south end. In fact, it may have never been put into public use or access. The mezzanine ceilings, and the original incandescent light fixtures are all unpainted. The north mezzanine area include ramps, and provisions for two additional fare control access areas. All this space is used by infrastructure to store cement, and other civil engineering materiel. |
