What's left today:
The whole station has been left behind, but is heavily graffitied. The station entrance has been blocked and locked so you cannot access it. Homeless people used the station as shelter and the eastern section is currently being used as a homeless shelter controlled by the Salvation Army. In 2008 the rails were cemented over.
