Morgan Avenue ‘L’ Mosaic Gets Looted?
Whoa. Did this girl remove one of the column mosaics from the Morgan Avenue ‘L’ station — and post the carefully arranged evidence to an online, public photo album? I mean, it’s not exactly a Kanakaria mosaic but it’s still some pretty significant vandalism of a historic facility. …though it would be cool to have subway sign mosaics as a kitchen backsplash. Hmmm…
CORRECTION AND APOLOGY: It turns out that no, the photographer did NOT take this mosaic, but merely took a photo of a worker replacing an old one. In my rush to put up interesting content, I slandered an innocent person. I’m sorry.

it looks like this is still in the station, maybe she just happened upon an MTA worker replacing the mosaic (possibly because somebody else swiped it?) the mind reels.

She’s pretty darn cute.

The Morgan Ave station and that mosaic appear in the video game Rock Band. That may or may not contribute to its souvenir value.

Someone took one. I saw a brand new mosaic being put up the other day.
Also #3— One of the guys who produced “Rock Band” has a brother who lives off the Morgan Stop. He’s my neighbor and I’ve heard him mention it. Kinda cool.
