Should note that Forest Hill's platform facade were all built along with the rest of the system during that same "bland" era. SF has 12 subway stations, you're leaving out the BART ones. BART built the Muni stations around the same time and have the same 2-pattern styles
No doubt Powell and Montgomery are bland, but imo Embarcadero, Glen Park and West Portal are the cities' jewels of 70's era stations. Forest Hill has a nice outward facade but interior wide the platform used to be really bland until BART remastered it in the 60's.pic.twitter.com/B0DUa1ogMg
I guess this is what Eureka Valley must have looked like, too, before they closed it?
From what I've read, Eureka looked like this but very dimly lit and with pillars in the middle. Like a submerged streetcar bootleg station. I would call West Portal a subway station. It's partially in Twin Peaks. The old West Portal that BART tore down was certainly interestingpic.twitter.com/KfNN0FULB9
Ooh, that’s a great photo, too. I think Wikipedia agrees with you, but I feel like for subway station to be “subway” the platforms actually need to be submerged? It *does* look kind of cool today. Hard to compare to the old one, though. They both have their charms.
Ha, if you read old newspapers, West Portal residents hated it and called it a toilet bowl
Did they only add elevators to Forest Hill with the 1970s update?
