City Hall Subway for Theresa

 For Theresa's underground adventure story.  IF you ever decide to set it in Manhattan instead of Queens, you could use this abandoned subway stop as a little backdrop/setting.  Or I guess if they travel far enough they could end up there too!  It's the City Hall stop, which was closed in 1945 and then everyone seemed to forget about it.  Now you can see it on one of the trains as you ride by. I just thought it was really cool.

    Very thoughtful suggestions Kerri. I wonder, would or could it be a good idea to mine set ideas from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? After all, they did live under NYC...

    Maybe. Honestly I don't remember much of anything about the show from when I watched it as a kid so I couldn't say. Worth a look I guess!

    This looks amazing! I'll definitely consider it for an entry/ exit point in my story. Thanks!
