Posted by William A. Padron on Fri Mar 12 14:22:59 2021, in response to Re: 75th Avenue (Re: What Are the Now-Abandoned Stations You Once Used Regularly?), posted by IRTRedbirdR33 on Fri Mar 12 08:39:52 2021. Checking the book "Tracks of the Independent Subway 1937-1940" published in 2015, the station listed on each platform is typed in as "75th. (Puritan) Ave. South" [Manhattan-bound] and "75th. (Puritan) Ave. North" [Jamaica-bound].I believe that the present 75th Road, away from the north side of the LIRR tracks, was probably once called "Puritan Avenue", where as away from the south side is called that still as "Puritan". Note also, the square exit directional tiles on each eastern end of the station point to 76th Avenue. -William A. Padron ["Homeball L82"] |
