Rosa Parks Transit Center!

Not to mention often kind of smelly.

Yeah, and you can pass the time waiting for a train by watching the rats chase each other along the tracks.

Have you ever looked down? I use the NYC subway everyday and yes they are dirty.

The Penn Station and the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan are also pretty dirty.

I'm only an occasional visitor -- so I must accept your opinion. Perhaps my standards are low. I don't mind the smell of the greasy, wet tracks. You can find the occasional revolting smell or sight. But for a system that handles more passengers per day than DDOT does in a year, they do quite well in housekeeping.

Last trip, I found the terrazzo floors at the PA Bus Terminal to be better maintained than the new terminal at Detroit Metro. But that's another story for another thread.

For this thread...

I like the RPTC. Its pleasantly designed. But I preferred the decor and burgers before the renovation. Public infrastructure is important, but I sure hope the cost of this non-commodity infrastructure didn't come from funds that could have bought hybrid busses.
