Posted by Stephen Bauman on Mon Dec 17 23:26:32 2018, in response to Re: List of closed New York City Subway entrances, posted by Union Tpke on Mon Dec 17 19:32:37 2018. What do you mean by "this was added to the 1948 stairway"?The Main St station was built with 4 stairways in 1928. The stairways were located at the 4 corners of Main & Roosevelt. The stairways were on Roosevelt and pointed west on the west side of Main and east on the east side of Main. An additional stairway was built off the original stairway on the SE corner. The stairway was on Main St and pointed south. This is corner where Woolworth later located, when a new building was erected. They had a basement and built an entrance on the landing of the stairway that was built in 1948. There were 2 additional stairways that were built in the early 1950's on Roosevelt between Main and Union Sts. They were built, when the station was lengthened to accommodate 11 car trains. When did Woolworth's close? My best guess without any research is between 15 and 18 years ago. |
