Park Row & Sands St. - Fare Control Areas

Posted by Express Rider on Wed Oct 14 09:22:35 2020

In photographs, the platform level for both terminals appears to be one level above the street. It's not clear from these photos, whether there is, or can be, room for an existing fare control area, with change booths and turnstyles (earlier years, ticket punchers), at an intermediate level, between the street and the platform.

Does anyone have more information/photos etc. on the interior arrangements at these terminals for fare control areas etc?

From early interior photos and black and white engraved drawings - for Park Row notably, from the Scientific American(?) - it looks like the fare control area at Park Row, was at the rear of the incoming platforms, (reached by stairs from Park Row at street level, adjacent to and immediately east of City Hall park).

But then, IIRC, dont't photos of the Park Row platforms show stairways as well? Do these go to an intermediate level where fare control is? Or do they go to street level? Were Park Row fare controls at street level?

The mid 1930s photos, for Sands St. showing beginning demolition - loop is gone, just a hole in the wall of the station structure. Doesn't look like there's an intermediate level just above the street for fare control facilities. Any more info is greatly welcomed. Thanks to anyone in advance!

Pictures I've seen of Park Row appear to indicate a mezzanine level, not direct to street stairways.

As to fare controls, that might vary depending on the era we're talking about. In its glory years, Park Row had distinct entrance and exit platforms. The fare controls would have required a way to segregate incoming and outgoing traffic.

In its last years, when the conduit tracks were removed, Park Row had only two active tracks, and an interlocking was created east of the station, it must have been much different.

I'll see if I can find more.

Awesome photos! Were these taken right after Park Row, Sands St, and Adams St were closed on March 5th, 1944?

I'd especially think the Park Row picture is before closure- the old "Edison" or classic light bulbs are in place. That pic might be from when the Park Row terminal was renovated in around 1896.

I'm sure by the 1940s, they were using the gray-frosted "standard" light bulbs.

Downtown Brooklyn is pretty over served when it comes to the subway. There are many stations in Downtown Brooklyn so I can see why Court Street station closed.

I think Court Street was built in anticipation of being connected with either the IND Second System or the Second Avenue Subway, I forget which. As constructed, it was a useless stub end.

Correct. Wasn't it suppposed to be either the local station, for a branch that continued south & into Brooklyn from the Hudson Terminal station, or as you said connected to the second ave. subway?

As a shuttle I wonder how much use it got during the rush hours - riders from the Court St. area using to connect to the A at Hoyt.

It was supposed to be the local terminal for the Fulton Line. None of the IND outer borough 4 track locals were designed to go to the city.

Its status as a terminal for Bkln lcl service was only temporary. The original idea was to connect it via a new tunnel the the bellmouths S/O Whitehall on the Bway BMT. The BMT would then be connected up to the tracks at the Hudson Terminal (WTC) platform of the IND which almost directly line up with each other. At some point, a connection to the SAS was added.

I doubt that was the original idea. It might have come up on some plan, but making it the terminal is consistent with the other two locals that connect via Crosstown.

I remember reading about this proposal. One of the reasons it was shelved was that all BMT Broadway tunnel service, south of City Hall, would be severed.

My thoughts are that the SAS could have turned west from Christie St to run above the BMT Bowery station. Past the Bowery connect it with the Centre-Nassau subway line via the two center tracks before the turn onto Centre St. If you are wondering why I said "above the Bowery", there was provision for the never-built Triboro Plan 3rd Ave subway to run above the existing Bowery stop. Sealed doorways for this 3rd Ave-Bowery transfer were built into the Bowery station and are shown in the station plans.

Downtown Brooklyn is pretty over served when it comes to the subway.

Do you (or anyone) think Downtown Brooklyn has passed its peak or that it has the potential to become like a mini-Midtown?

It doesn't seem like many skyscrapers will go up south of Atlantic Ave (or even Schermerhorn St) so has it gone as far as it can go?

I assume that the gated Park Row stairway led to the platform that was closed in 1935.

Probably the platform that was closed in August, 1935, when the rear extension was removed.

At some point in the IND both first and second system, there would have had to be some local service between the boroughs as was the case with the Concourse. It may have worked out that way initially, but there would have been at least one local service between Bkln and Manhattan coming off the Utica/Stuyvesant subway since there was no provision for tuning back any local service from the Marine Pk area at S 4 St. A connection between Court St and The BMT at Whitehall St makes perfect sense and I have seen documentation to that effect somewhere.

Considering Mayor Hylan’s attitude towards the BMT, I doubt that was a consideration. Some parts of the IND were actually built to preclude any further expansion of the privates.

That seems very doubtful. So Cortlandt Street station (now connected with the WTC stub-end via a transfer passageway) would have been abandoned? And BMT locals from the north would end at City Hall? The south end of the WTC stub-end station is just one flight down from the street. How would people even get to the island platform there if the tracks didn't end there? Or would that island platform be abandoned and Cortlandt Street station kept? It seems very unlikely that was the plan.

The island platform is so close to Cortlandt St that the island platform would probably have been abandoned, with the stub end tracks extended along what's now the connecting pedestrian passageway to merge into the BMT tracks at the north end of Cortlandt St, via an at grade junction. Both BMT and IND trains would share the same track between Cortlandt and Whitehall. An interesting possibilty is that at the same time an IND train branched off towards Court St south of Whitehall, a BMT train from Broad St could merge into the slot vacated by the IND train and continue on to Montague St, along with BMT trains from Whitehall. Fantasy subway!

Many of the lines people mention as alternatives, were actually meant to coexist with each other. Had the IND been connected to the BMT at Hudson Term, there were still other stairways to get off the IND platform and there is already a mezzanine for that station complex so there would have been no problem adding another stairway to the street. As for the lack of BMT Bway service to Montague, as I mentioned in my other post, with mayor Hylan's attitude towards the BMT cutting off part of the BMT to Montague was not even a consideration. Also at the time the Nassau St Line was under construction so all that would have happened would have been that tunnel passengers would end up going to Nassau St only a short distance from Bway anyhow. Tunnel passengers needing points farther up Bway could simply change at Canal St for trains coming off the bridge or lcls originating at City Hall.

Yes there were. Read my posts carefully, There are bellmouths at the S/E of Whitehall St for connection to a new underwater tunnel. They were originally intended for a new subway in downtown Bkln as part of the Ashland Pl connection to a rebuilt Fulton St el. Since The IND Fulton St Line was a direct replacement for the Fulton St el, the bellmouths could be repurposed for a new tunnel connecting Whitehall with Court St. The BMT infrastructure form Cortlandt St south is under Church St in almost perfect alignment with the IND tracks at Hudson Terminal.

I thought the provision was the huge space above the tracks. I do remember seeing a door above the tracks with no way of getting to it!

On a related note, the space for one of the closed off entrances was taken over by a dumpling place (probably closed for good now because of the pandemic). What was interesting is that, apparently, the old BMT tile work was never removed by the previous tenants. The dumpling place uncovered/restored the tile work and set up a seating area in the former exit, so you could eat surrounded by BMT tiles!
