________________
96 STREET
Within the vaulted ceiling area of the new station house located on Broadway between 95th and 96th Streets, the artists have created a profusion of flowers that appear animated. The hanging sculptural work consists of 180 polished stainless steel flowers linked together and arranged in rows that flow from the structure's steel traverse beams, creating ethereal layers of reflective surfaces with an almost ghost-like presence. The artists' intent is to reflect the community's historic roots as Bloomingdale, derived from the Dutch "Bloemendaal" - Vale of Flowers. The installation is a memento of nature past, reminding subway riders of a time before the area became an urban neighborhood, changing their perception of place for a few fleeting moments. The organic arrangement of the flowers and their light and airy quality bring life to the soaring volume of the interior space. At night, ceiling lights cause the flowers to glimmer and the overall effect is a subtle yet lyrical evocation of the idea of gardens and light. As transit riders emerge from the subway and climb stairs up to the street level, they glimpse the layered flowers, which change in appearance as people move past. Leaving here, the express tracks descend and turn off. Under 104th street where there is a wide area and an employee platform with emergency exit to the 1 train.

It is Laminated glass, stone and glass mosaic Inspired by the historic 1912 Italianate villa structure of the station and its proximity to the Bronx Zoo, Luisa Caldwell created a series of colorful and lively artworks with references to classical beauty, reflective of the architectural style of the original building. Fifteen unique and site-specific pieces are placed throughout the station. Above the doorway entrance, there are three lush and vibrant floral bouquets with an elk and elephant welcoming the traveler and serving as a Bronx Zoo reference. Along the corridor, mosaic and glass artworks are on opposite walls. In the windows, glass panels reflect the arches of the historic station, flowers, and vines, creating an illusion of depth and light. On the walls, mosaic frames of silver mirror reflect the thematic arches and complete an effect of calmness sought by the artist, who follows feng-shui principles. These works are balanced with five additional mosaics within the station. Two are located next to the stairs and portray small creatures and vases reminiscent of the niche bouquets at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Along the East 180th Street corridor that serves as a station exit, there are three more mosaics created with a blend of stones that echo the massive rock outcroppings found throughout the Bronx. A colorful peacock and lizard sit on the rocks, looking like they are taking a break from the nearby zoo.One important element was donated to the project by construction contractor Citnalta. Company President Mike Gargiulo visited the job and felt that the historic building was missing just one thing – a clock. Having studied historical preservation in college, he thought a clock would add a lot to the project. Some electronic sleuthing turned up old images showing the original clock. A similar item was sourced from Electric Time Co. in Massachusetts. The old images were sent up to them and they suggested a clock that would fit the design of the early 20th Century transportation building.“We at Citnalta, with NYC Transit’s and Lee Harris Pomeroy’s permission, donated the clock and the installation, because we thought it completed the look, making a great renovation just a little bit nicer,” said Gargiulo. A yard and shop are to the West of the station and the abandoned NYW&B station to our east (See NYWB Port Chester Service and NYWB White Plains Service. )The 2 train and 5 train split here via flyover ramps. North of here we see the Unionport Yard to our East. From here to 241st has also been renovated . The contractor was Judlau Construction.
