I'd also like to see evidence that the vaulted ceiling subterranean hallway has anything to do with a subway stop. And wadda ya mean 'recently'? I've seen posts for what seems like about 5 years talking about this, as far as I know it's just a rumor.

That's all it is and ever was. It's a real tease!
It was a 2 car stub, cut back to 1 car long to make room for the Suburban Station to Market East railroad tunnel in the 1980's. And it extends north of Market St from the S-S loop, which at that point is running south to north under Juniper St, half a block west of and parallel to 13th.
Since the Kawasaki cars have couplers, presumably the better to tow you with my dear, at least maybe better than their PCC tow, or in the case of a disabled car in front of you, push, bars, coupled (hee hee) with the stub having room to store only 1 disabled car, I don't think it's useful enough to matter much if it's in service or not.
