You can see the mounds of dirt from the raised roadway. Essentially where the sidewalk (if any) ends and the empty lots begin. Considering that the lots are several feet below besides the road/sidewalk, a station would have been sticking out several more feet into the lot for entryways, turnstiles, booths, platforms, etc. and then drop vertically as in any such construction.
The best comparison is the (1) station at the WTC which could be clearly seen "sticking out" besides and under Greenwich St when that street was raised/rebuilt above Ground Zero after cleanup and reconstruction of the subway line but before it's north and south edges were filled.
The Pitkin Av roadway has no such thing in that photo.
A tunnel....maybe. But no station.
