Welcome back to The Nerd Expansion! Today's guest is the Evan Schweitzer and his nerd love is The NYC Subway. Woah. It's awesome.

Actor, improviser, and Brooklyn native, Evan, wasn't allowed to ride the subway alone as a kid but that didn't stop his fascination with underground trains. What are some of the nooks and crannies that lie just beneath the bustling streets of the Big Apple? Evan is psyched to share!

Recs from Evan!

There are maps about extensions that were never built (including that S. 4th Street station) as well as abandoned sections and provisions built into the current system for future expansion.
