The Metropolitan Transportation Authority reopened the Clark Street 2/3 subway station in Brooklyn Heights on Tuesday, following a closure caused by an awning collapse on Sunday.
A 10-feet by 20-feet awning on what was once the Hotel St. George on Clark Street fell onto the street on Sunday, blocking the station exit.
The station closure was ordered by the NYC Department of Buildings on Sunday.
