Senator Dilan, joined by MTA NYC Transit President, Prendergast unveil Knickerbocker Ave M station upgrades

Senator Dilan recently joined MTA New York City Transit President Thomas Prendergast to formally unveil the newly refurbished Knickerbocker Avenue M Line Station on Myrtle Avenue. The station was closed from August 18, 2012 to February 8, 2013 for rehabilitation.
