40th-Lowery is much like 33rd-Rawson<\/a>. In fact, it’s quite literally a copy-paste of 33rd-Rawson. So, this entry will not be very exciting. Sorry! Here ya go, anyways, as duty calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

40th-Lowery, quite literally, is a copy-paste of 33rd-Rawson. I’m not even joking. You have the same signage (except reads “40th St.-Lowery St.”), mezzanine design, station design, track configuration, and everything. The only unique thing, as far as I can find, about this station is that it’s the only elevated station on the line WITHOUT a free crossover to the opposite direction. Likewise, there is only one other station on the entire line without a free crossover, being Vernon Blvd. near the LI City LIRR station. Yeah, sorry, but that’s not a good distinction to have. \ud83d\ude41 The bus connections are also the same as at 33rd St., being the Q32 and Q60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good: It sees frequent service during daylight hours! It also gets the job done, for what it’s worth! It also seems cool for photography. (though, in my opinion, not as much as 33rd-Rawson)

The bad: It’s copy-pasted. That means no ADA compliance here, people! D: Also, no free crossovers.

Nearby points of interest: There’s some restaurants nearby according to Google Maps, including a McDonald’s, Wendy’s, and even a White Castle. There’s also a butcher shop. There’s also a school on the next street over (are NYC public schools really just numbered???)

Transit connections:
Flushing Line (Line #7)
MTA bus (Q32, Q60)

Overall, yeah, I got very little to remark about this station. This might be a common theme with NYC, and a telltale sign of copy-pasted stuff. Sorry. \ud83d\ude41
