Posted by Avid Reader on Wed Jan 1 09:33:43 2014, in response to Map Question, posted by Graham on Fri Dec 27 09:22:11 2013.  Nestled between 6Th and 7Th Avenues on 53Rd St. is the IND's powerhouse. It also has an unused Entrance/Exit to the double level 7Th Ave station. Note, the middle opening, with light. There was a time one could see an IND type stairs descending to the lower levels. It may still be so. On the opposite (north) side of 53Rd. street in the Hilton Hotel Garage entrance. The western most section has a series of doors that only open from the inside. Beyond these doors, there is another set of stairs descending to the lower levels. I don't know if there is a fare control area below, or if the entrance was ever open to the public before the Hilton was built. Perhaps our very own Tunnel Rat has the answer on these stairs, entrance and behind the Hilton Doors. This is almost as noteworthy as 76Th Street! |
