Re: [PHOTO] Mystery Photo - AB # 2644

I actually did get a chance to see Dekalb both before and during the rebuild and It is definitely NOT Dekalb. Even taking into account as another poster mentioned that the tiles at the extreme south end on the curve might not have matched the originals, There are several other factors to consider. The actual walls of the station infrastructure have no safety niches and since there is one clearly in the photo just outside the lower left hand door window that eliminates any of the outside tracks. The next giveaways that it is not one of the middle tracks are that the safety niches in the curtain walls of the 4 Av Subway are almost the full height of the curtain wall and go completely through making the exp tks visible. The safety niche in the photo is only as high as about a foot above the door window and has tile backing which the safety niches at Dekalb do not.
