The station was built in 1917 but the sign isn't quite that old. The Williamsburg Building, Brooklyn's tallest skyscraper, has a priceless ornate subway sign on street level. The Stillwell Avenue station, terminal of the B, D, F and N trains in Coney Island, boasts the same facade it had when constructed way back in the Thirties. Looking a bit worse for the wear of seven decades, this is an original BMT sign on Surf Avenue that leads to the cavernous Stillwell Avenue station. One of the two original green and red plaques on the exterior of the Stillwell Avenue station.
Central Park has a number of quaint entries in the fancy illuminated subway sign sweepstakes.
