I like fun facts!

Did you know thereโ€™s a secret subway station under the City Hall in NYC? The beautifully tiled City Hall station was closed to the public in 1945, but you can still catch a glimpse of it by staying on the 6 train after its last stop. Itโ€™s a hidden gem beneath the bustling city streets!
