The newly renovated 72nd Street subway station just opened a little over a week ago and, lo and behold, the stairs were flooded just days later. The station underwent a $25 million renovation with new digital tools and structural upgrades but — just like the 110th Street station — the station is already facing flooding problems.

David Lebowitz sent the following video late last week.

“After receiving reports, we quickly dispatched a cleaner to unclog the drain in that stairwell,” an MTA spokesperson wrote.
