From the way the station has been described to me by the old timers, I suspect that it is the Manhattan bound entrance to the Myrtle Av (Gold ST) station. The S/B side was completely obliterated when the Dekalb/Gold area was realigned circa 1960 and in any case the sign indicates that it is heading towards Manhattan and Queens. Strangely, although the Manhattan bound platform and exit is still there for use as an emergency exit I never set foot on that platform, but I was on the S/B platform in 1956 since my father mistakenly thought that we could transfer to the Myrtle Av el there. Since there is no Xover between the S/B and N/B platform there, we had to go south to Dekalb to get a N/B train back to Canal St where we changed for the Jamaica line to Bway/Myrt. |
