These new photos from the MTA show the work being done to the 2nd Avenue subway, and it looks wild—like, Mad Max wild. This of the first of four phases; completion is set for 2016. When it's all said and done, the construction will result in a two-track line along 2nd Avenue, from 125th Street to the Financial District. A connection through the 63rd Street tunnel for service toBrooklynand West Midtown will also be created.
