STATIONS
*125TH STREET*
(the Lexington Avenue Line (also known as the East Side Line) is one of the lines of the IRT division of the ‘New York City Subway’, stretching from ‘Downtown Brooklyn’ or ‘Lower Manhattan’ north to ‘125th Street’ in ‘East Harlem’)
(the portion in ‘Lower’ and ‘Midtown’ Manhattan was part of the city’s first subway line)
(the line is served by the 4 5 6 <6> trains)
(for a long time, the ‘Lexington Avenue line’ was the only line in ‘Manhattan’ to directly serve the ‘Upper East Side’ and ‘East Midtown’; this four-track line is the most used rapid transit line in the ‘United States’)
(its average of 1.3 million daily riders is more than the total riderships of the transit systems of ‘San Francisco’ (452,600 weekday passengers), ‘Chicago’ (772,900 weekday passengers), and ‘Boston’ (569,200))
(in 2007, its ridership also exceeded that of the entire ‘Washington Metro’, and in part spurred the construction of the parallel ‘Second Avenue Subway’ that year, to relieve congestion on the ‘Lexington Avenue’ line)
(four stations along this line have been abandoned)
(when platforms were lengthened to fit ten cars, it was deemed most beneficial to close these stations and open new entrances for adjacent stations)
(the 18th Street station was abandoned because of the proximity to both ’14th Street–Union Square’ and ’23rd Street’)
(in addition, the ‘City Hall’ and ‘Worth Street’ stations were both very close to the ‘Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall’ station’s ‘Brooklyn Bridge’ and ‘Duane Street’ exits, respectively, so both were abandoned)
(finally, ‘South Ferry’ is within walking distance of ‘Bowling Green’, and is right next to the corresponding station on the ‘IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line’)
