Thanks!! But I tend to doubt that small kiosk lasted much, if at all, into the post WW2 era- like you say, the far control must've been very small. I'm thinking maybe it was an exit only- even if the Wikipedia article says otherwise...

Or, if ingress was allowed there, maybe the original builders didn't think many people would want to go uptown from that spot- they may have imagined that most uptown riders would have already boarded in Brooklyn or at South Ferry. Yes, I realize it was a bi-directional platform, but as the stairs would've been at the north end, it was probably targeted towards uptown riders.

I have an unlimited ride card this week. Maybe I'll go in there and see if anything's visible inside the station. But I doubt it.
