It takes you to 'Greek Town' where a coalesced area of Greeks reside and straphangers can find bars with live music, restaurants, cafes, bakeries and coffee shops. This elevated station has two side platforms and three tracks. This subway station has been updated modernized and contains simple architecture keeping with function and operational rather than beauty and ornate. My style is traditional, but I do believe individuals and society must adapt with changing times for updated modernization - at least keep it classic and simple which this subway station maintain. The entrance/exit kiosk is modern, but a classic and very simple appeal glass-and-steel canopies with no lavish modern awnings. The artwork for the station, titled "Perasma I and II; Dappleganger," by Stephen Westfall installed in 2018 consists of 47 laminated glass mural panels in the mezzanine, each with geometric designs. It allows color and natural sunlight to be emitted.

Good considering the location isn't anything interesting. It serves the N and W Trains. These are almost the same thing, with both terminating a few stops north of here, so there's plenty of chances to catch a train up that ways. It gets good marks for having frequent trains to Astoria. This is a good way to get from Long Island City to Astoria, the only line that passes through. It can be difficult to find the entrance. It's at the corner of 31st Street and 39th Avenue. They allow crossing over after entering turnstiles.

It is an ADA compliant accessible station. In 2007, the MTA installedl faceted stained glass windows designed by New York artist Tomie Arai called "Back to the Garden," a nod to the Joni MItchell song lyrics about a more simpler life. You'll find among the floral one of the things I enjoyed the most - inset screened black & white historic photos of areas this White Plains Road Line passes through. Period images of The Grand Concourse, Prospect Avenue, the old subway entrance at East 149th Street, trollies along Third Avenue show how much the Bronx has changed. My favorite pic - the 1890 White Plains Road 2-story wooden Hotel W. Thwaite that also sold wines and lager beer! All in all, they add to this great public artwork, making it worth taking a closer look!

Some people are just clueless and stand by the door all the times and some people just are unruly when the train is crowded. MTA needs to fix alot of things and not just worry about putting spikes near the turnstiles. Absolutely a fail by the MTA

The way they keep me coming back I'll be using this station more again. I know it's not a great station but it's historic to me. It's always the feeling I get when I'm entering the station. I know I'm home. I always felt secure because there's always been employee in the booth if I had a question. I didn't look to see today if there was someone on duty. I heard they were all going to be placed working on the platforms now! I'm not recommending one way or another. This station is a necessity so take the train and come see me. Plus I like that it has the look of a classic old school train station.

Pavonia is a fine PATH station. It does the job. It's where you can switch PATH lines. For example,…read moreif you are trying to get to Hoboken from Harrison, you transfer here. It's not bad inside - fairly clean. It can get a little icky during the summer when you're waiting on the platform, but other than that it's OK. After you get off the train onto the platform at Pavonia, you walk upstairs to the ramps. Then you walk the ramps to the escalators. You go one flight up and then push through turnstiles. It can be a pain if you have or your companion has mobility issues. The outside of Pavonia-Newport PATH looks nice with greenery and flowers. It's almost like a little park.

This station is one of 3 or 4 that were totally renovated on the R-line several years ago,…read morere-opening around 2017. I've visited them all and they are all really nice. Each has improved seating, with "stand up boards" that let you simply lean without fully sitting. The bench seats have arms to help us old heads pry our bodies out of a sitting position. There is also improved recessed lighting that is not quite as harsh as the old fluorescent bulbs. The displays are also bright and back lit now, with some handy USB chargers if you need one in a pinch. Finally, each of the refurbished stations has some interesting and quite pretty art installation. It just looks so much better! In fact, when I stepped off the train the other day, I almost felt like I was in another cities metro system. It just looks clean and slick. That's a pretty big score for the MTA. Commuters and tourists should use it and enjoy it....you could do a lot worse.

One of the smaller stations on the "R" line in Brooklyn. Wait times for the "R" can be a pain since…read moreit is a local train and it's one of the worst subway lines in the system when it comes to reliability. The "M" train use to run with the "R" back in 1987, but as time went on the "M" no longer ran with the "R" in Brooklyn due to MTA's budget cuts in 2010. On the weekends and late nights the "D" & "N" provide extra service (unless stated otherwise) to help the "R" since it acts as a Shuttle train that terminates at 36th St & Bay Ridge-95th St while it skips 53rd & 45th Sts towards 36 St but stops at these two stations only if it's going towards Bay Ridge.
