The 21st Van Alst stop on the G train is a lightly used station with an abandoned full length mezzanine (which was never open to the public) and closed entranceway. The abandoned entrance contains an original wooden token booth, and a small corner of a map was left on one wall, showing double letter subway routes that were phased out in 1985. The entrance was likely closed in the 1970s during a round of budget cuts.
