I don't know if any photos exist of the station entrance s at either 59 or 36 St which had a similar station entrance in the median of 4 Av. Somewhere years ago, I read some documentation that mentioned that the station entrances in the median at the express stations on 4 Av were removed and placed on the sidewalks due to being a traffic hazard. I got the impression that Pacific St might also have had a similar entrance in the median. Interestingly, the 96/Bway station on the IRT had a headhouse built on a modified median in the middle of Broadway to make station access easier. I guess something like that is not as much of a traffic hazard in 21 century Manhattan as it was in 20 century Brooklyn. |
