stairmaster

By now ClockTowerTenants are familiar with the subway staircase repairs currently underway at 138th and Lincoln.

Our downtown subway entry is boarded and we are instead greeted by a sign. It won’t be reopened until a few days before Christmas.

Scaffolding is set up at the bottom of the stair, and loose tile is being removed.

They are working through the weekends but there’s no mention on the MTA webpage because service remains the same.

Now we have to walk a block farther to Alexander and enter there, or enter on Lincoln but go down the uptown staircase.

You can see if a downtown train is coming and there’s a crossover stair about midplatform, making it worthwhile bounding up one side and back down the other if you are in a hurry.
