Well, well, well, HPA means either or both of 2 things:1) The station remains for some diesel trains after ESA 2) They expect the 2023 date to slip some more. In the mid-1980's there were plans to build another platform on the north side, and run a pedestrian walkway over Line 1, but not as high as the street, and punch a hole into the side of the subway station mezzanine. |

I was gonna say it may/may not be necessary if and when ESA opens, but there are people who do work in Long Island City, so the work I can see happening! |

Too bad the city of New York does not fix the 49th Ave. overpass over the HP station. There is a tremendous steel plate welded over the LIRR tracks. |

I also take the train from HPA every Friday afternoon when going to my girlfriend's house in Northport.And sometimes disembarking on the 6:37 arrival to HPA on Monday mornings while on my way to work in Greenpoint. This elevator will be a godsend! |

Wow, this should be ready just in time for the station to become irrelevant as ESA saps almost all it's usage.This should have been done 20 years ago. |
