Explore Brooklyn history at Borough Hall - AKA Brooklyn's first subway station! 🚇

As part of a major modernization of the Borough Hall subway station, 1,000 square feet of original 1908 mosaic tilework has been restored and reinstalled, preserving details from Brooklyn’s very first subway station!

Alongside the historic tiles, a new 110-foot mosaic by artist Ruby Onyinyechi Amanze brings a playful new layer to the station. Titled "May Your Road Be Light and Fun," the MTA Arts & Design installation fills the passageway connecting the 2, 3, 4 and 5 trains with colorful characters, birds, and dreamlike forms.

The newly modernized station is also now fully ADA-accessible, bringing together accessibility, preservation, and public art in the heart of Downtown Brooklyn.
