by Haisten Willis

NEW YORK CITY — The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) and Urbahn Architects have completed the renovation of the Morgan Avenue subway station house in Brooklyn. Serving the L train line, the Morgan Avenue station house is located near the intersection of Bogart Street and Harrison Place in the East Williamsburg neighborhood. MTA served as project manager as well as structural, civil, mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineer for the upgrades. Double M Construction was the general contractor. The station opened on July 14, 1928, as part of an extension of the BMT Canarsie line. Renovations included replacement of the 400-square-foot brick and limestone façade, repairs to the roof and installation of a new framed entrance with transom windows, exterior LED lighting and exterior signage.
