That is so sad and scary. It must’ve been teffifying. Imagine not being able to get back up. I agree that people shouldn’t stand toward the egde. This is why I always stand away from the edge but it’s scary to even think of this.

Now that’s scared! So scared he isn’t worried about his “yarmulke.” What would the rebbe say? Alls I can say is I never fell through the platform when it was the D train and I took it to the city.

The condition of the station should never have been allowed to deteriorate to such a point in the first place as to cause the potential for serious injury to anyone, especially a child, but the political grandstanding by the Assemblyman is so typical. I noticed that neither he nor the media made any mention of the fact that public hearings took place last year regarding the century old elevated stations on this line, and that they are all scheduled to be replaced with new structures in a multi-year project that is set to begin in the near future. Apparently the story is much more sensational & newsworthy without mentioning all the facts.

I use this station every day and it truly is in need of repair and maintenance . Try exiting of the station on the East 16th Street side after it rains…the stairway landings are flooded to the point where your whole foot is submerged in water.

And they have the nerve to be considering an increase in transportation fares. Ridiculous.
