Re: Feds Sue MTA Over Failure to Install Elevator at Middletown Road Station (6)

So many people think installing elevators and escalators are so simple. To those politicians, just go to Marcy Ave. J/Z/M station. Check out all the new steel work required. And for those of us who remember, part of that structure was needed to enlarge the fare control area.

If you look at Rockaway Blvd. on the A you would need similar structure work, if there is even a spot. The mezzanine would have to be enlarged significanytly. You would need 3 elevators. One from the street and 2 to each platform. Many Astoria line stations have similar small mezzanines.
