The MTA has just announced that it will be able to get limited subway service back on Thursday, although service below 42nd street will not be running. The MTA photo above is of an underwater escalator at the South Ferry station, so you can see why.
Update: Subways and buses will be free for the rest of the week.
A bus bridge between Brooklyn and Manhattan will also be running, with 330 buses, Governor Cuomo says.
The MTA has a map of the restored subway lines here (pdf).
