NYC's new 34th Street – Hudson Yards subway station


New York City recently celebrated the opening of the 7 line extension to Manhattan's rapidly developing Far West Side. The impressive new 34th Street – Hudson Yards station is spacious and clean and features wide platforms, bright lighting, easy to understand signage, colorful art and overall a sleek and modern look.

The station, the MTA's first completely new subway stop since 1989, is one of the deepest in the system and includes escalators and elevators. When subway riders arrive at street level they are greeted by a new park and construction cranes as the building boom continues apace on the Hudson Yards Redevelopment Project.

The new station is a short walk to the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, which it was recently announced will be undergoing a major renovation and expansion.

Here is video riding up the station's escalators:
