Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Tue Oct 16 11:53:09 2007, in response to Re: More Photos by Frank Pfuhler, posted by mellow one on Tue Oct 16 09:24:05 2007. The scene taken from the angle of the photographer would not be recognizable today. First off, not a single trace of that station exists today, the first I heard of it's (and Parkside's) existence was on nycsubway.org. I've walked the ROW many times between the old burned trestle over the Montauk line to the old Ozone Park station. It's now heavily forested with trees. Tracks are intact in sections, though the ballast has washed away. It's very dangerous, full of rats, racoons and the occasional stray dog. Stay away from the remnants of the Woodhaven station, it was full of homeless people when I was last there. Much of the ROW has been illegally encroached upon by homes which border in in Woodhaven and Ozone Park. Near Atlantic Ave, a section has been co-opted by a school bus company. Just south of the Glendale cutoff, an apartment building paved over a portion of it to use as a parking lot. |
