Two tidbits from today's festivities:
- Mike from Satan's Laundromat tells us that the gorgeous City Hall Station is open to the public, but only until 4PM today. Gothamist realizes it might be hard for those of you not in downtown Manhattan, but if you do work in the City Hall area, run and check out the station and report back.
- Reader Jenny says she heard on WNYC that M&M's was going to offer special Subway M&M's. Now, this was one of the winning ideas from the Straphangers contest last year about things the MTA should do to celebrate the Subway's 100th birthday. Subway M&M's are the most brilliant idea - imagine the cool subway art that could be created from them! At any rate, you can get special M&M's from M&M's directly.

where do you get the M&Ms?????
Also: Do the 1 + 9s give you cancer. Do the 4,5, & 6's help you get home runs?
AAAAHHHH! City Hall Station is open and I'm stuck here in Indiana. Pishers... :(
DAMNIT. A little more notice, next time?
Gothamist, you rock! I got in just under the wire. Unfortunately all I had was the camera phone and no flash, but I'm posting what I have here: http://amy.buzznet.com/user/?id=610580
to my Buzznet account.
Don't blame me (or Gothamist) for the lack of notice, blame the city. This wasn't announced until today, as far as I can tell, and even then it was just word-of-mouth. I'm lucky enough to have a friend who works for the City Council.
This is way cool. Any idea rather we can purchase these somewhere?
I noticed this past weekend an MTA poster celebrating the anniversary. It depicting a subway platform and was filled with scientology ads. Many of the people in the scene were wearing shirts that said volunteerminister.com, a scientology site, and another part of the poster had people giving stress tests on one of those machines scientologist use. Anyone else seen this? I saw it at Fort Hamilton on the F line.
Is it true that the proceeds from the M&M sales will raise money to help the Knicks?
I cannot get over how fitting my commute home yesterday was; at 59th & Lexington, they announced that the signal was completely out at Queensboro Plaza, and that there would be no N/Q/R/W/F/7 service.
Went, had dinner, came back an hour later, everything was fixed - but man, you should've seen the commuters. The MTA sure knows how to throw a "party".
what about those scientology ads - totally wierd -
that cult is outta control!
