When we first heard about the possibility of losing a clerk at the Prospect Park station we didn't know how certain it was. Now we know: it is a done deal. Starting on Sunday one of the token booths at the Prospect Park station will be unattended until the MTA gets its financial house in order (read: permanently). I don't know whether the clerk will disappear from the Lincoln Road or Empire Boulevard entrance.
Other local stations losing at least one station attendant are the Church Avenue Q/B and the Newkirk and Brooklyn College 2/5 stations. The full list of citywide station closings is here.
This is not a comment about the empty token booth (though if I were to comment my comment would be something along the lines of "that sucks") but I was not sure how to contact you about neighborhood gossip.
Flatbush Avenue rumors are FLYING about the construction work going on next to the pizza place on Flatbush right around the corner from Lincoln... Rumor has it that it is going to be an Italian Restaurant.
Thoughts? Confirmations? Denials?
