CENTRAL AS WE

KNOW IT: 2023

Follow our journey through the station. Click on the images to see what we saw, and know more about our thoughts and emotions concerning safety.

Topic

Corrugated Iron Roof is oppressive, low and claustrophobic

Tiling feels abrasive and bland

Lighting is white and harsh

Murals are faded and monochrome

Tunnel is hot and crowded, with limited ventilation, trapping disease

"It feels unsafe, it feels like I am dying"

DEVENSHIRE TUNNEL

Topic

Red pillars are an obstruction for vision

The red is distressing, colours like orange or yellow signify "warning" rather than "danger"

The roof is low and makes the space feel cramped

The office is not open but still marked, potential for a false sense of security

CHALMERS

STREET

ENTERANCE

Topic

Long, thin tunnel creates sense of disorientation

Multiple corners for people to hide around

Less sense of worry because of route to platforms as escape

Dead end creates less options for people to hide

OLD TUNNEL

TO PLATFORMS

16-23

Topic

The platform was confusing with construction barriers blocking views around corners and of exits

More safe because of visible guards and staff for help

Multiple ways to exit the platform if being pursued

PLATFORM

18

Topic

Wide, open space

Lots of natural light

Use of light natural materials like wood and carpet

Glass makes elements feel more open and less obtrusive

No sharp corners for people to hide behind

Easy to navigate through and find way

Overall a more safe feeling space

RENOVATED CONCOURSE

Topic

Tunel has noticeable security cameras, speakers and sprinklers.

No areas for people to hide in corners

Despite the construction, this area feels relatively comfortable

TUNNEL

UNDER

CONSTRUCTION

Topic

Wide, open area

Access to station guards, head office and amenities

Glass barriers deter loitering or hiding

The Grand Concourse is one of the most safe feeling areas in the station

GRAND

CONCOURSE

Topic

We cannot speak to how this does/does not create a sense of safety, but believe it is important to acknowledge and share history, as it truly was

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

OF HISTORY

Like the Grand Concourse, there are wide, open spaces, high ceilings and lots of light, both natural and artificial

Station workers are present

Multiple exits, both to other areas of the station and outside the station

Topic

EDDY AVENUE

EXIT

Topic

High amount of visible security cameras act as a deterrent and increase feelings of safety

The passageway is well lit, but construction does obstruct views of corners and elevators
