À propos de cette activité

Dive underground and experience the web of tunnels that keeps New York City moving. Every day, millions of New Yorkers ride on the city’s subway system – one of the world’s busiest and most extensive. With over a century of service, the New York City Subway has not only influenced New York City’s history and development, but possess an entire history of its own. On this tour, you will: - Learn about the terminology, technology, and economics which have shaped the New York City subway system. - Hear about the history of the New York City subway system, from the days of private operation to today’s consolidated city-owned network. - Come to understand why stations and services are the way they are, including the decisions which created the subway’s current form. - See unused spaces, hear about unbuilt lines, and step foot in a subway station which was never completed.
