City Hall Subway station, New York

Welcome to the stunningly beautiful, but abandoned, New York City Hall station.
Abandoned for more than 70 yrs., it had chandeliers and beautiful leaded glass skylights.
But, by 1945, the newer, longer subway cars could no longer fit on the station’s curved tracks, so it was closed.
The City Hall station was designed by the architects Heins & LaFarge, notable for their work at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.
Today, the ticket booths and wooden benches are gone, and many of the skylights are broken or still retain the tar that was used to black them out during WWII.
In addition to the Transit Museum’s tours, (you have to be a member and tickets sell out quickly), you can catch a glimpse of the subway station if you stay on the downtown 6 train after it leaves the Brooklyn Bridge station, as it will loop through the City Hall station to head back uptown.
They were going to widen it, but ridership fell off (well, of course it did, it was closed. Duh!)
The entrances underwent a $17K cleanup.
And are still there.
