The 42nd street stop seems to be missing the 8th avenue line downtown platform.

Maybe it's just completely covered by the walking area?

It'd be great to have a 3d visualization where you can rotate the camera around.

I noticed that, too. I think the angles are such that it wouldn't be visible from this perspective. The steps are there. (Although I could swear there's another set of steps just across from the "Urbo" entrance. May have to take a detour down there tomorrow to satisfy my curiosity.)

The platform is there, just not quite visible because the upper floor is obstructing it. But you can see the bottom of the platform next to the accessible ramp.
