- Info The City Hall subway station in New York City closed in 1945 because the length and curve of the track couldn't accommodate newer cars. I first learned of it as "the abandoned station you can see out the window of the 6 train" (which still uses the track to turn around, but doesn't stop there). When I finally did get access, there were some interesting architectural/design elements, and I was particularly drawn to this skylight, which looks up to an unsuspecting area of City Hall Park now.

- Support I really like this half-sideview instead of the usual straight up angle, with the bulbs more visual. A bit "Gotham". --Cart (talk) 15:56, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
- Support Very Gotham indeed. Nice angle, good quality, and an interesting bit of history. Cmao20 (talk) 23:27, 16 July 2019 (UTC)

- Support per Cart. I like that you not only got this holy grail of NYC subway pictures, you got it from a different angle. Daniel Case (talk) 02:37, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
