NEW YORK (AP) - A New York City man chose a unique setting to propose to his girlfriend: a subway tunnel under construction.

Carolyn Grossman said yes to Adam Meagher, who got on his knee in the Second Avenue subway on Sunday, according to the New York Post (https://bit.ly/TjaBYh).

The 35-year-old Meagher and his 31-year-old fiancee are both urban planners. She says their best conversations have been in New York’s transit system.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority arranged for the couple to join a community tour of the future station at Manhattan’s East 86th Street.

The cavernous tunnel is being built so subway service can operate up Manhattan’s far East Side by 2016.

Meagher sealed his proposal with a 1920s vintage diamond ring.
