It's not just the government (though that's a problem as well) it's not easy to keep a place in presentable condition when public urination is commonplace among the populace.

Have you been in much of the NYMTA stations? Urine is destructive but can't account for a fraction of how these stations are fucked up.
-
I was using "public urination" more as a representative vice of general public dysfunction. (Graffiti, littering, intentional chipping at walls, gum, etc. etc.)
-
Cool but my point still remains. None of those things are making tiles fall from the wall from behind, especially not into the train tracks from the other side of the platform

Oh yeah, absolutely the government is a big part of the problem, but there's a lot to discourage them from cleaning and maintaining stations when they'll be decrepit in a week anyway.

this is giving me flashbacks to the endless piss-smelling Walnut Street concourse, whose only merit was the fact that it was well-lit (well, not the stairwells lol)pic.twitter.com/gwRL3SyUYZ

or the one time someone--a human being--took the biggest shit I have ever seen in my life right in the middle of the station stairs, and when I came back in the afternoon someone had thoughtfully covered it up with newspaper (litter, I assume)
