R Train - Prospect Ave. (Day 5, stop #228)


Out: This section of 4th Ave. is still pretty gritty.  There are some gentrifiers around, but still mostly Hispanic here.  

There’s not a whole lot at this intersection, and the main feature seems to be a nearby offramp from the BQE.  There is a check cashing place along with other lower-scale establishments.


In: Large white tiles like 25 St., but now there are big blue tiles near the station name signs.  Otherwise similar.
