ARCHITECTURE: MAINTENANCE AT 125TH STATION

Harlem Bespoke: Those living on the west side might notice that there has been a lot of weekend maintenance on the elevated 1 train station at 125th Street as of late.  This is all kind of interesting since the landmark arch straddling Broadway had chipped, rusting paint on the exterior for many years until restoration started up in 2010.  The major difference now is that Columbia University has a new campus finally partially constructed in the area and there is probably more tax money and other motivational factors to keep the public transportation system in top form.  Check out what the train station used to look like in our past post: LINK
