N E W S T O T R AV E L B Y

Take the “A” Train Growing up in Canarsie, Brooklyn, in the 1960s, I remember the excitement of the long subway ride (well over an hour) to W. 14th Street in “the big city.” It began with a bus ride down to the Rockaway Parkway station, the train’s starting point. In those days, some of the subway cars were still outfitted with tightly knit, yellow wicker seats, remnant cars from the 1920s, uncomfortable but so elegant. When I returned home from college, in 1978, subways were at their worst: crimeridden, graffiti-splattered, broken-down. How times have changed.

Soon after the Metropolitan Transportation Authority took over the subway system from the NYC Transit Authority, in 1968, the city entered a fiscal crisis. Crime and vandalism increased, subway lines frequently broke down and user service decreased. By the late 1970s, 327 million

passengers had stopped using the subway. Some predicted that if the rate of decline continued, there would be no passengers left by 2002.

Enter a new era. In 1985, the MTA Arts & Design program was launched to install permanent artworks in stations. Then, in 1993, Rudolph Giuliani

in the world

became the 107th mayor of the city, bringing with him a “zero tolerance“ policy. Subway crime dropped, and renovations begun in the late 1980s reversed ridership trends. Today, riding the subways is a clean, safe and aesthetically pleasing experience, from Columbus Circle (left) to W. 81st Street (center) to Mott Avenue in Far Rockaway, Queens (right).

Adventurers

Off The Beaten Path

The (1) Socrates Sculpture Park website boasts it is “the only site in the New York metropolitan area dedicated to providing artists with opportunities to exhibit large-scale sculpture.” We boast that this lovely park in Long Island City, Queens, is free of charge. Speaking of free, the restaurants, museums and minor league ballpark in St. George on Staten Island can all be reached via a no-cost, windswept ride on (2) The Staten Island Ferry. A $10 cover on Thursday nights gets you in to 3) Broadway Sessions and a performance by a new Broadway star.

See the city’s most celebrated landmarks on 15- or 20-minute aerial tours via (1) Liberty Helicopters.

Opened since 1937, (2) Gleason’s Gym is worth a visit if you’re interested in seeing (or even participating!) in a live boxing match. The gym, which moved from the Bronx to Manhattan to Brooklyn, was where fighters such as Jake LaMotta and Muhammad Ali (then Cassius Clay) trained. Rather climb than fight? (3) Brooklyn Boulders provides 22,000 square feet of climbing surface, day passes and classes for adults and kids, gear rental and orientations.

The (1) Anthology Film Archives, a showcase/study center for film and video, is screening “Citizen Kane,” (March 4), thought by many critics to be the greatest film ever made.

At the (2) Rubin Museum of Art, you get a comprehensive look at the Himalayas, India and neighboring regions, including “Nepalese Seasons” (thru March 27). How about this for wacky: This month, the performance venue (3) Littlefield presents “Drunk Science” (March 22), where intoxicated comics compete to present scientific dissertations to a panel of real scientists. Wow.
