Reply to comment by TywinHouseLannister in TIL first two subway stations in the United States were the Boylston and Park Street stations in Boston, which opened in 1897. by garamond89

Boylston and Park specifically, or just in general? Boston's MTA does a good job of adding a new coat of paint to make things look nice on the surface, but, at least 20 years ago, it took almost no effort to find the rotting bits and whatnot.

I've been there... but was speaking generally, maybe Rose tinted glasses since they've been talking about building a subway in my hometown for about 20 years and I doubt they'll ever break ground!
