This is the worst train station in new york. Full of junkies. Worst mta employees. They let junkies go in and out as they please. They let anyone jump turnstyles. They let everyone on free so junkies smoke crack, dust, and cigerettes in the trainstation and by turnstyles. They let junkies block the turnstyles. They solicit and panhandle. They are aggressive and make physical contact with you. They get way to close to people. The mta employees dont face danger or harrassment behind their booth so they dont care about us. They feedback means nothing. I been getting harrased everyday for more than a year. I have to take my wife to the train and pick her up everyday or she gets harrased and cornered. Drug dealers stay outside the station and direct the junkies. Tell them who to harrass. The mta employees sit in the booth while crackheads smoke crack right at the turnstyles and scream at people. Its absolutely disgusting and the mta employees and station manager should be absolutely ashamed. They fail to enforce the laws that are clearly listed in the subway. Its the mta officials job to enforce the laws and policies. They never do anything. They stay in the booth, collecting their pay check for doing nothing. They might as well not even be there. They don't enforce laws. They dont keep us safe. They dont call police on the junkies. I even had someone hit cancel on the mta machine while i was purchasing a card so they can try to sell me a swipe. Everyday i go to that train i prepare to defend myself from harrassment and even assualt. The mta failed to create a safe environment and it only happens because we are in harlem and they clearly don't care about us. I sat there waiting for the train while the turnstyle filled up with junkies harrassing people, blocking machinesb turnstyles, the stairs. The rules and policies are constantly being broken and mta does nothing. They let people on the train free if they just asked. I witnessed people going up to the booth and saying they had no money and if they can let them in and the mta employee opens the gate for them. They dont enforce rules, they let people on free, they never call the cops, so what are they getting paid for? Every single day. For more than a year. Every day. Its so frustrating. And i know later at 530 I'm going to have to deal with the same thing. Drug dealers outside the train, junkies inside the station, and mta employees sittint in the booth staring into space wondering how much overtime they made.absolutely disgusting. Station manager should step down and retire because he failed the people hes supposed to care about. If they don't want to enforce the rules, or charge peopleb or keep the place safe and clean then they shouldnt be mta employees. If they dont care about the job they should quit. Its dusgusting. Its not hard. Enforce the rules!!! Sitting in the booth when theres two junkies blocking the kiosk station. Rediculous! I push for the firing of the employees in the booth and the...
Read moreCathedral Parkway–110th Street (IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line) Cathedral Parkway–110th Street is a local station on the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of 110th Street (Cathedral Parkway) and Broadway in Morningside Heights, Manhattan, it is served by the "1" train at all times. The first subway began on October 27, 1904, with the opening of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway from City Hall to 145th Street on the West Side Branch, including the 110th Street station. In 1948, platforms on the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line from 103rd Street to 238th Street were lengthened to 514 feet to allow full ten-car express trains. Previously the stations could only platform six car local trains. The platform extensions were opened in stages. On April 6, 1948, the stations from 103rd Street to Dyckman Street had their platform extensions opened, except for 125th Street, which had its expansion opened on June 11, 1948. In 2002, it was announced that 110th Street would be one of ten subway stations citywide and one of five on the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line to receive renovations. This station has two side platforms and three tracks, the center one being an unused express track. The southbound local track is technically known as BB1, and the northbound one is BB4; the BB designation is used for chaining purposes along the Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line from 96th Street to 242nd Street. Although it cannot be accessed at Cathedral Parkway–110th Street, the center track is designated as M. It is important to note that these designations are rarely, if ever, used in ordinary conversation. According to this chaining, the station is approximately 0.74 mi (1.19 km) from 96th Street. It is the closest station to the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine. Each platform has separate fare controls, and there are no crossovers or crossunders, allowing free transfers between directions. The only entrance to the southbound platform is at the north-west corner of 110th Street and Broadway; there are entrances to the northbound platform from both the north-eastern and south-eastern corners of 110th Street and Broadway. There is a newsstand on the...
Read moreI live at this station and love how the MTA just renovated it clean and bright.
Barbara D sometimes goes home with me and says she also loves the final renovation and she also loves how it’s right next to the St. John cathedral church ⛪️
It’s also a great station to stop at Hmart or the market...
