Summary

Description
English: The interior of the former Essex Street entrance to Chinatown station in July 2019. (The view was accomplished by sliding a camera between the bars of the door, with the flash on.) The image reveals the history of the entrance: part of an "ESSEX" tile mosaic is at top, and the original wall tiles are in position. The signage and map dates to 1977; it was likely installed along with the orange/red paint as a halfhearted modernization in the late 1970s. Full modernization of the northbound side did not occur until 1986-87, at which time this entrance was replaced with an entrance north of Essex Street.
