Patco 15th/16th Locust Station

I’ve been here many times. I usually get off here when I wanna go to places like Mitchell and Ness, One Liberty Observation Deck, etc. This stop underwent construction and it looks pretty nice.

Great for public transpiration from New Jersey to Philadelphia. No need to pay for toll, parking or sit in traffic during rush hours.
I would normally give a 5 star but because the amount of homeless people who sleep down near the entrance and exits make me feel super uncomfortable.
Public safety should really do something about this and not allow them to sleep there all hours of the day: night.

Last stop of the Patco/​speedline on the PA side. Best stop to use for center city/​downtown/​Rittenhouse areas of Philly. Station is always clean, although late at night (after 11pm) you might find a few homeless folks sleeping underground here. You’ll often find a Patco employee at this stop around the evening rush hour, helping people work the ticket machines, or telling people the time of the next train departure. This stop also has underground access to the Broadstreet line (walk towards the 15^th Street exit, and keep going straight underground, follow the signs). Recent upgrades made the floor areas just by the turnstiles & bottom of the exit stairs less slippery. Although be warned on rainy days once you’re a few steps past these new non-​slip areas, the rest of the floor is just as slippery as it’s always been, so tread lightly. Wish Patco had just refinished all the floors to avoid this problem, but oh well.

General patco station, just like the rest. Decently clean like the others. There are plenty of bars in the area around this station. I prefer center city so I always generally take patco into the city from Jersey, where I live.
