63 Drive-Rego Park (G,F,V)

Home<N.Y.C. Subway Stations<63 Drive-Rego Park/Queens Blvd

63 Drive Rego Park has one of the most complex designs for its mezzanine for an unimportant local station. Please see the diagram below for its complexities of how the two main exits are connected to one another, how the within fare control areas work with the mezzanine, how each platform has two extra exit only exits to the street. Lots of old original text along the walls of the station also still exists.
The color scheme of the side platforms is teal trim (and the standard black border around it) with teal borders around the name tablets and the columns painted a light blue. This station also has 63rd Drive signs on the beams between the express and local tracks. On none of the signage Drive is abbreviated Dr, like it is only the subway map for the only subway stop with Drive in its name.
