The BMT station received a minor overhaul in the late 1970s when the MTA fixed the station's structure and the overall appearance, and it repaired staircases and platform edges, removed pedestrian ramps, and replaced lighting. A new control area would be installed at the bottom of the stairway. [5]:3, 19, The tunnel is covered by a "U"-shaped trough that contains utility pipes and wires. 90048, USA WEBSITE . A new platform, 28 feet (8.5 m) wide and located between tracks 1 and 4, would be built along the section of the shuttle that runs under 42nd Street, which is located within a straight tunnel. A previous proposal had called for the entire length of the subway to use Broadway, but the "awkward alignment...along Forty-Second Street", as the commission put it, was necessitated by objections to using the southernmost section of Broadway. Unique to the Subway systems, ADA access is provided by passageway ramps. The shallowest station is the 42nd Street Shuttle platform, which runs in an northwest-southeast direction under 42nd Street east of Broadway, and is 20 feet (6.1 m) below street level.

[6] Small sections of the original wall remained before the station's reconstruction, with brick wainscoting capped by a marble band and white tiles. It is partly underneath the Port Authority Bus Terminal. [32][33] For most of its existence, the lower level platform was only used for occasional service specials, including summer "Rockaway Special" trains to Beach 98th Street at the Rockaways' Playland beginning in 1958, the Aqueduct Racetrack special fare trains from 1959 to 1981, and rush hour E trains in the 1970s, beginning on March 23, 1970.[34][35][36][37].

This crossunder features stairs, elevators and up-only escalators. [5]:6–7, The tracks continue south (compass west) beyond the station to the 34th Street station. [26] The fare control area contains access to both the primary mezzanine, which contains the IRT transfer, as well as a set of staircases and escalators leading directly to the east end of the IND platform. The IRT platforms' elevators were installed in June 1989, making the station one of the earliest to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. [17]:168 As part of a modification to the IRT's construction contracts, made on January 18, 1910, the company was to lengthen station platforms to accommodate ten-car express and six-car local trains.

[44] The tunnels slope down through where the old lower level platform was. [43] Transit blogger Benjamin Kabak, who was invited to tour the Flushing Line extension and view construction progress, reported in February 2012 that the lower level platform had been "bisected" by the Flushing Line extension. SOMNI 465 S La Cienega Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90048. [94] Scholars believe that Vickers and his colleagues unmistakably reference the symbol of the South to pay homage to New York Times owner Adolph S. Ochs. To further mitigate damage done to portions of the original station, certain features would be repaired and restored, including the original southwest platform and control area wall finishes, the original cast iron columns, the ceiling plaster ornamentation, and the cast iron guard rails. [66] Two stairs to the northeastern corner of 41st Street and Seventh Avenue were closed during the same time, as were stairs to both western corners of that intersection.

[48] However, as part of the 2015–2019 Capital Program, the MTA is scheduling some improvements to make it accessible under the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. [2] It was served by a shuttle train to 34th Street–Penn Station until the rest of the extension opened a year later on July 1, 1918. [34] It was built 70 feet (21 m) below street level, as the line had to pass beneath all of the north–south subway lines that were built before it. The main corridor was widened 15 feet (4.6 m), and the number of sharp corners reduced; ADA accessibility was introduced with elevators; new escalators; and other corridors were widened. [34][35] By the 2010s, the lower level platform had been bisected by the extension of the Flushing Line.[45]. The trackside walls also contain exposed I-beam columns, dividing the trackside walls into 5-foot-wide panels. North of the station, track 4 merges into the northbound IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line local track along the original subway alignment, north of the current Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line station. [5]:3, 19, Under the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line platforms, but above the Flushing Line platforms, is a lower mezzanine level extending from west to east. [12] The Times Square–42nd Street station opened on October 27, 1904, as one of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway from City Hall to 145th Street on the West Side Branch. An exit-only stair rises to the southwest corner of 41st Street and Broadway. [6], Because of the curvature on the platforms, gap fillers under the platforms were used on tracks 1 and 3. [53] A construction contract was awarded in March 2019, with an estimated completion date of March 2022. On the south side of 42nd Street between Seventh Avenue and Broadway, there is an elevator and escalator bank. The original plan for what became the extension north of 42nd Street was to continue it south through Irving Place and into what is now the BMT Broadway Line at Ninth Street and Broadway. The trackside walls also contain exposed I-beam columns, dividing the trackside walls into 5-foot-wide panels. [9], Planning for a subway line in New York City dates to 1864. East of this station (railroad north), the line goes under the East River to Long Island City, Queens. 633 W. 5th Street, 71st Floor Los Angeles, CA 90071 WEBSITE.

[5]:6 Stairways to the other lines are provided at the northern end and in the center of each platform; two stairways from each platform lead to the lower mezzanine level while the remainder lead to mezzanines above the platforms. [5]:7 "Music Under New York" controls various spots within the mezzanine for performers. [61][5]:19–20, Two sets of exits on 40th Street are separate from the main mezzanine areas and are signed as only serving certain services. Note: Service variations, station closures, and reroutes are not reflected here. The southwest-corner entrance also has a wheelchair lift that leads to an elevator. In July 1911, the IRT had withdrawn from the talks, and the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company (BRT) was to operate on Lexington Avenue. Near the south end of the BMT platforms, there is a smaller mezzanine overhead, which leads to exits at 40th Street. It called for a subway line from New York City Hall in lower Manhattan to the Upper West Side, where two branches would lead north into the Bronx.
