Black and White Study: NYC Subway (Decay)

Franklin Avenue Station 2, 3, 4, 5 Manhattan Bound Platform

The politics of New York City mass transit inspired me to take my cameras down into the subway system. Fares are increasing amid massive service cuts and interruptions both below and above ground. Although renovations are improving a handful of stations, at the present rate of repair, the question remains: will upkeep keep pace with decay?
