Avenue N

Arriving this subway station reminds me of Dante’s descent to the Inferno when he reads the sign, “Abandon hope all ye who enter here!” Take your chances, folks… it’s a dice game either way.

Besides it's not running overnight. It also skips few stations Manhattan bound during morning rush hour. Seriously?!

When they finally open this station to trains consistently both ways then I'll give it at least one more star

The weekday evening station agent has been very nice and helpful, I didn't get her name, but she has helped me with trivial bent or super-expired MetroCard problems more than once.

Cons: No elevators. How do parents with young children and strollers or elderly ones survive in this city.... Saw an elderly man walk out the train last night, barely managing to lift each foot forward half a step at a time, paused to catch his breath after barely managing to exit the train before the door closed. Then there’s 3 looooong flights of stairs for him to go down thereafter. So sad. So sad. So sad! Just thinking about it makes me feel like it’s a plunge to death. So sad.

Pros: Children under 44 inches ride for free. Just duck under to get in. The staff doesn’t even mind if kids are slightly taller. Nice.

Avenue N station is going strong after 4 years of renovations.

Upd:Station reopened on July 30.
