I was there yesterday to navigate around the station. I'm confused. Is the Orange line above or below the blue line or is the blue line between the two orange line tracks?
It has a very different meaning underground. Underneath that is the State Station Subway, that houses both the Orange and Blue line. I call it Central America, because the majority of Central and South American's are usually downstair's waiting to board the Inbound Blue Line to head back to Lynn after a long day's work. I would know. I'm Latino myself so. 🤷♂️ Also, it's True. Go and check yourself and Prove me Wrong. Which is kind of ironic since you never really see them above ground really. That entire area is pretty, how do i put this, gentrified and very business orientated. It's right near city hall, so it makes sense. As soon as any hot day hits in the summer, that's when State Station is unbelievably packed. No exaggeration. Because Revere Beach. You better stand near a pillar to possibly get a seat when the train comes. That's IF the train isn't already packed on arrival. And be careful the crowd doesn't push you around. Or pick pocket you. So, in short, above ground, it's a Major American Historical Figure that represents our Country in Full. Below, Welcome to Guatemala.
I still can't figure out where all the station exits lead to.

State Street is actually a pretty awesome station, I really like the bend on the Forest Hills platform on the Orange Line side.
