New York City Subway

I remember being surprised when I read that more than half of the New York City subway is above ground. Here in Queens it reminds one of the “L” in Chicago. These three images were taken on the outbound platform of the Seven Train at 72nd Street and Roosevelt Avenue, with the towers of The City in the background

Three images by Richard Koenig; taken in the mid-1980s.
