4. Original Glass Flooring

In the original light-filled station, glass bricks allowed natural light to reach down to lower levels, an architectural detail visible on vintage photographs. Though they no longer serve this purpose, the flooring remains visible in many locations in the station, again because the floors were not ripped up for the renovation but simply built around. On the tour, we’ll bring you to one place where new lighting has been added to particularly highlight the remnant. In addition, when you’re on the platforms themselves, look up because you can also catch more of the blocks.
