    This is a pretty good subway station. It has one big advantage. This is close to Central Park. Convenient from downtown. This is a heavily traveled line. It serves the B and C. It's not all that much to look at. This station however is pretty clean, which isn't all that usual. It heads up Central Park West for a stretch and into Harlem. The station is also near a bus stop. It's overall an okay station. Convenient if you're going to northern areas of Central Park. These areas include the transverse road and the waterfalls.

    While unfortunately this 86th Street Subway Station, serviced by the 7th Avenue Local 1 train, is…read morenot fully accessible at this time and MTA has no immediate plans to put in an ADA compliant upgrade, it really has something special with delightful artwork generated by a community project with neighborhood kids. Along each platform, you'll notice black framed pieces, including the "Westside Views" as well as "Westside Poem" by Pedro Pietri, the poet/playwright who was one of the co-founders of the Nuyorican Movement. The local Community Board, seeking to use available funds for a youth project to benefit the community, enlisted Mexican-born Nuyorican artist Nitza Trufiño, who earlier founded El Museo de Barrio. Trufiño brought in 17 kids to collaborate, most part of a program at Grosvenor Neighborhood House. Pictures were taken, interviews made, then the images students drew were captured in these murals, installed in 1989. Take a look at each wonderful individual tile telling a story about this neighborhood and its people. It's worth a visit to this station in the Upper West Side. Btw, Nitza Trufiño's work is also featured in the 103rd Street Station of the Lexington Ave. Local Line 6 train Subway Station.

    To get to the Upper West Side 10024 take the 1 2 3 train to 86 St. You can see the murals that very…read moreaccurately portray UWS.
