Three years ago, Hurricane Sandy knocked out many Downtown subway stations cutting off Manhattan and the Bronx from Brooklyn, but last Sunday, there were bright flood coverings subway grates on Sixth Ave., near the Canal St. station in preparation for Hurricane Joaquin. The storm, which had a devastating effect in the Bahamas, bypassed New York City.
