The 145th Street station is a local station on the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Broadway and 145th Street in Hamilton Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, it is served by the 1 trains at all times.
The 145th Street station was constructed for the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) as part of the city's first subway line, which was approved in 1900. Construction of the line segment that includes 145th Street began on May 14 of the same year. The station opened on October 27, 1904, as one of the original 28 stations of the New York City Subway. The station's platforms were lengthened in 1948.
The 145th Street station contains two side platforms and three tracks; the center track is not used in regular service. The station was built with tile and mosaic decorations. The platforms contain exits to 145th Street and Broadway and are not connected to each other within fare control.
History
[edit]Construction and opening
[edit]Planning for a subway line in New York City dates to 1864.[4]: 21 However, development of what would become the city's first subway line did not start until 1894, when the New York State Legislature passed the Rapid Transit Act.[4]: 139–140 The subway plans were drawn up by a team of engineers led by William Barclay Parsons, the Rapid Transit Commission's chief engineer. It called for a subway line from New York City Hall in lower Manhattan to the Upper West Side, where two branches would lead north into the Bronx.[5]: 3 A plan was formally adopted in 1897,[4]: 148 and all legal conflicts concerning the route alignment were resolved near the end of 1899.[4]: 161
The Rapid Transit Construction Company, organized by John B. McDonald and funded by August Belmont Jr., signed the initial Contract 1 with the Rapid Transit Commission in February 1900,[6] under which it would construct the subway and maintain a 50-year operating lease from the opening of the line.[4]: 165 In 1901, the firm of Heins & LaFarge was hired to design the underground stations.[5]: 4 Belmont incorporated the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) in April 1902 to operate the subway.[4]: 182
The 145th Street station was constructed as part of the IRT's West Side Line (now the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line) from 133rd Street to a point 100 feet (30 m) north of 182nd Street. Work on this section was conducted by L. B. McCabe & Brother, who started building the tunnel segment on May 14, 1900.[6] The section of the West Side Line around this station was originally planned as a two-track line, but in early 1901, was changed to a three-track structure to permit train storage in the center track.[7]: 93 [8]: 189–190 A third track was added directly north of 96th Street, immediately east of the originally planned two tracks.[9]: 14 By late 1903, the subway was nearly complete, but the IRT Powerhouse and the system's electrical substations were still under construction, delaying the system's opening.[4]: 186 [10] As late as October 26, 1904, the day before the subway was scheduled to open, the walls and ceilings were incomplete.[11]
The 145th Street station opened on October 27, 1904, as the northern terminal station of the original 28-station New York City Subway line to City Hall.[2][4]: 186 The line was subsequently extended one stop to 157th Street in December 1904,[12]: 191 and ultimately was extended to 242nd Street in the Bronx in 1908.[13]: 191 [14]
Service changes and station renovations
[edit]After the first subway line was completed in 1908,[15] the station was served by West Side local and express trains. Express trains began at South Ferry in Manhattan or Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, and ended at 242nd Street in the Bronx. Local trains ran from City Hall to 242nd Street during rush hours, continuing south from City Hall to South Ferry at other times.[16] In 1918, the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line opened south of Times Square–42nd Street, and the original line was divided into an H-shaped system. The original subway north of Times Square thus became part of the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line. Local trains were sent to South Ferry, while express trains used the new Clark Street Tunnel to Brooklyn.[17]
To address overcrowding, in 1909, the New York Public Service Commission proposed lengthening the platforms at stations along the original IRT subway.[18]: 168 As part of a modification to the IRT's construction contracts made on January 18, 1910, the company was to lengthen station platforms to accommodate ten-car express and six-car local trains. In addition to $1.5 million (equivalent to $49.1 million in 2023) spent on platform lengthening, $500,000 (equivalent to $16.4 million in 2023) was spent on building additional entrances and exits. It was anticipated that these improvements would increase capacity by 25 percent.[19]: 15 The northbound platform at the 145th Street station was extended 150 feet (46 m) to the south,[19]: 112–113 while the southbound platform was not lengthened.[19]: 106 The work involved reconstructing the interlocking between the center and northbound tracks.[19]: 112–113 Six-car local trains began operating in October 1910,[18]: 168 and ten-car express trains began running on the West Side Line on January 24, 1911.[18]: 168 [20] Subsequently, the station could accommodate six-car local trains, but ten-car trains could not open some of their doors.[21]
The city government took over the IRT's operations on June 12, 1940.[22][23] Platforms at IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line stations between ‹See TfM›103rd Street and ‹See TfM›238th Street, including those at 145th Street, were lengthened to 514 feet (157 m) between 1946 and 1948, allowing full ten-car express trains to stop at these stations.[21] A contract for the platform extensions at 145th Street and eight other stations on the line was awarded to Spencer, White & Prentis Inc. in October 1946,[24] with an estimated cost of $3.891 million.[25] The platform extensions at these stations were opened in stages. On April 6, 1948, the platform extension at 145th Street opened.[21][26] Simultaneously, the IRT routes were given numbered designations with the introduction of "R-type" rolling stock, which contained rollsigns with numbered designations for each service.[27] The route to 242nd Street became known as the 1.[28] In 1959, all 1 trains became local.[29]
In April 1988,[30] the New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA) unveiled plans to speed up service on the Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line through the implementation of a skip-stop service: the 9 train.[31] When skip-stop service began on August 21, 1989, skip-stop service was implemented during rush hours and middays. 145th Street was the southernmost local stop that was served by the 9 during rush hours and middays and the 1 at other times.[32][33][34] On September 4, 1994, midday skip-stop service was discontinued.[35] Skip-stop service ended on May 27, 2005, as a result of a decrease in the number of riders who benefited.[36]

Side platform |
This station was part of the original subway, and has two side platforms and three tracks, the center one being an unused express track.[37] The station is served by the 1 at all times[38] and is between 157th Street to the north and 137th Street to the south.[39] The platforms were originally 350 feet (110 m) long, like at other stations north of 96th Street,[5]: 4 [40]: 8 but as a result of the 1948 platform extension, became 520 feet (160 m) long.[21] The platform extensions are at the southern ends of the uptown platform and the northern end of the downtown platform, making them slightly offset.[40]: 40
Design
[edit]As with other stations built as part of the original IRT, the station was constructed using a cut-and-cover method.[41]: 237 The tunnel is covered by a U-shaped trough that contains utility pipes and wires. The bottom of this trough contains a foundation of concrete no less than 4 inches (100 mm) thick.[40]: 9 Each platform consists of 3-inch-thick (7.6 cm) concrete slabs, beneath which are drainage basins. The original platforms contain circular, cast-iron Doric-style columns spaced every 15 feet (4.6 m), while the platform extensions contain I-beam columns. Additional columns between the tracks, spaced every 5 feet (1.5 m), support the jack-arched concrete station roofs.[5]: 4 [40]: 9 There is a 1-inch (25 mm) gap between the trough wall and the platform walls, which are made of 4-inch (100 mm)-thick brick covered over by a tiled finish.[40]: 9
The decorative scheme consists of blue tile tablets; blue tile bands; a white terracotta cornice; and light blue terracotta plaques.[40]: 40 The mosaic tiles at all original IRT stations were manufactured by the American Encaustic Tile Company, which subcontracted the installations at each station.[40]: 31 The decorative work was performed by tile contractor Manhattan Glass Tile Company and terracotta contractor Atlantic Terra Cotta Company.[40]: 40 The platforms contain their original trim line of green with gray borders. "145" in white lettering on a dark border are tiled onto the trim. The station's other name tablets show "145TH ST." in a multi-color mosaic. The directional signs read also read "145TH ST." in white lettering on a black border.
Track layout
[edit]The northbound local track merges with the center track north of the station and the line continues north as two tracks. The switch from the southbound track to the center track is south of the station.[37]
Just south of the station lies the underground 137th Street Yard, which is visible from passing trains. The track layout allows northbound trains to bypass this station by switching to the center express track in the 137th Street Yard.[37]
Exits
[edit]Both platforms have same-level fare control containing a bank of turnstiles, token booth, and staircases to the street. The northbound platform has two staircases (one to each eastern corner of Broadway and 145th Street) and the southbound platform has a single staircase to the northwestern corner. There are no crossovers or crossunders to allow transfers between directions.[42]
