This image was taken from the staircase leading to the ticket booth on Putnam Avenue in Ridgewood. The section below is free to visit, but you’ll have to purchase a ticket ($2.50) if you want to access the elevated train platform. I pointed my camera down toward the street while standing on the staircase overlook.
By Subway:
- Closest Station: Forest Avenue (M Train)
- Head toward the north of the platform, you’ll find the staircase leading to the street level
