I was taking the LIRR early Monday morning to visit my brother in Long Island. My go-to station…read morehad always been Penn, but Monday's train originated from Grand Central Madison. I'd never been -- the station is only three years old -- so I stopped by Sunday to (pardon the expression) 'case the joint out.' Good thing! I entered at Grand Central Station, followed signs and walked. Then walked some more. Took escalators, maybe an elevator. Finally ended up at ticketing. I don't think I would have allotted enough time if I hadn't known the layout beforehand. It was off hour. Not many people there. The customer service rep, a wonderful woman named Heather, wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing. She actually left her post to show me the tracks and helped me get my bearings. (Guess what! Heather was there Monday morning when I returned. I felt like I was seeing an old friend!) Here's a tip for everyone: If you don't want to deal with the underground labyrinth, look for the elevator on Madison off 47th Street. It'll take you directly down to ticketing and the waiting area. And specifically for older folks: To reap the senior discount, purchase your tickets the day of your trip, not before. There's no upcharge to buy tickets on the train. If I heard correctly, senior fares are the same for peak and off-peak -- but don't quote me on that! This station is light, bright, much quieter than Penn. Bathrooms are infinitely better. Now that I know what I'm doing, this may become my station of choice.

But I have to award five stars for the clean bathroom. Due to basic geography, the ride itself is faster than Penn, so maybe if they were starting in 1908 they would have built Penn Station here, but consider all the terminated or "maybe someday in theory" rail links it's nice that this thing actually got built.

I'm a curious one... had to look up these murals. I will say art isn't just stored in a museum. The…read moremurals at this station have history behind it. I did not know there were four sets of three murals. I just captured one set, thus, repeat visits will be coming. Here's a little history. "These twelve mosaics, collectively known as "The Greenwich Village Murals," show some of the interesting and diverse history of the Greenwich Village neighborhood surrounding this station. They were created by ceramic artist Leo Grozwol in collaboration with fifth and six grade students from a local school (Public School 41)." "The murals are divided into four sets of three murals each, with the following subtitles: Bohemians, Founders, Providers, and Rebels. There is a key for each set of murals on the wall nearby, helping visitors to identify each person featured in the murals." Wow, learn something new every day. So, next time you are utilizing the metro, take a look around you, art is everywhere!

Even before it opened in 1918, the location of this Christopher St-Stonewall Subway Station,…read moreformerly referred to as Christopher St-Sheridan Square, has been the heart of the "West Village," this Greenwich Village neighborhood that was nexus for culture, social movements, intellectuals, eccentrics, and more than a few good bars for all walks of life to connect. This station is always busy, serviced by the 7th Avenue Local Line 1 train and also 2 when it runs local at night, however unfortunately MTA has no immediate plans to make it accessible with ADA compliant upgrades. That being said, in 1994 MTA installed tile mosaic murals designed by P.S. 41 students guided by artist and Lower East Side social worker Lee Brozgol - a work that captures the rich historic figures that shaped not only the West Village, but many whose influence extended throughout the U.S. and globally. "The Greenwich Village Murals" include 4 three-panel groupings, arranged by the impact of these important figures: Founders, Providers, Bohemians, and Rebels. Definitely worth checking it out!

Beneath her home at The Dakota, these wonderful 2018 underground "SKY" mosaics present calming blue skies with puffs of soft clouds taken from her photos and incorporate handwritten thought-provoking words that tie into her own work as an artist and also connect with the messages of John Lennon, her late husband. They are the perfect imagery to stop and reflect. In addition to the mosaics, you'll notice digital signage and other renovations also made in 2018. Nevertheless, the MTA SHAMEFULLY DID NOT INSTALL ANY ELEVATORS - OUTRAGEOUS, considering that this station abuts Central Park! People who cannot easily navigate the stairs, such as with strollers, carriages, or wheelchairs cannot easily use this subway station - especially that extra set to reach the lower Downtown platform!!!

Indeed, I agree with fellow Yelper Marianne W. as I also had to search this station in my Yelp mobile application for a check-in. The platforms have the original artisan mosaic name tablets written "72ND ST." in white sans-serif lettering on a midnight blue background and black border, as well as small "72" tile captions in white numbering. There are also directional signage with arrows "DOWNTOWN" which I admire, appreciate and value artisan skilled trade tile setter when the MTA NYC subway system was built. There are wooden benches available. This station is not ADA accessible. This station contains two underground basement levels including a mezzanine level. The mezzanine level contain fare control area, station agent booth, MetroCard and OMNY machines. The station facade contain a green globe indicating a 24/7 hour token booth with a station agent for access to the station. The 72nd Street is the closest station to both the Dakota apartment building (which is immediately outside the station) and the Strawberry Fields memorial in Central Park.

I'm not sure why we decided "lunch in the Village" was such a great idea but here we are. The station is quite clean (at least the level where we were) and signage was decent. A little loud, perhaps.

There are two levels with tracks (A/C/E on the B2 level, B/D/F/M on the lower B4 level) and two mezzanine levels, one for the fare control and the other is for connecting between platform levels. Each of the track levels has separate island platforms for the northbound and southbound trains. [Review 15657 overall - 253 in New York - 1161 of 2021.]
