Although this beautiful station is not open to the public, guided tours are provided periodically, or you can get a sneak peek if you stay on the 6 train after its final stop. It had a single platform and is now part of the loop that 6 trains make going from the Brooklyn Bridge downtown local platform back around to the uptown local platform. During the ‘City Beautiful’ movement around the turn of the last century, during which Grand Central Terminal and Washington Square Park’s arch were both completed, New York City’s first subway station opened to the public.
Aside from tiled signs with station names and directions, there is minimal architectural about the network’s contemporary trappings. The subway’s architects, George Lewis Heins and Christopher Grant LaFarge, were the men responsible for the Cathedral of St. While once an energetic station, the long-standing city hall subway stop located along the 6 line shut down in 1945 due to its failure to be restructured and the low amount of traffic it received.
