The Coney Island Yard motor repair shop is built as a two-story brick box lit by a sawtooth skylight
The motor repair shop went up between 1925 and 1927 as part of the Coney Island Complex, the subway's yard in Gravesend. It is a plain two-story, box-shaped building clad in brick, with banks of big multi-paned windows and a very large sawtooth skylight. The National Register of Historic Places listed it in 2006, together with the yard's gatehouse.
