The station first opened on June 7, 1936, along with 8th Street in Philadelphia and City Hall and Broadway in Camden, New Jersey, as part of Philadelphia Rapid Transit's Bridge Line service.[1] The station was open for several intervals, each time eventually being closed for low ridership. Most recently, the station was refurbished and reopened as a PATCO station in 1976, coinciding with the United States Bicentennial celebration. The station remained open until 1979, when it was closed again due to low ridership. Approximate years of operation were 1936–1939, 1943–1946, 1952–1953, and 1976–1979, with sources varying on the details.[2][3][4] All PATCO trains pass through Franklin Square upon crossing the Benjamin Franklin Bridge and entering Philadelphia. The platform and walkway are visible when looking out of the left side of the train. From the surface, entrances are visible, but sealed by concrete. The station will be rebuilt starting in 2020 and is expected to reopen in 2022.[5][6] Station layout
Possible reopeningProjections now are at about 1,500 [riders] a day... DRPA's CEO, John Hanson, said a five-year, $28.2 million plan is now in place for the eventual reopening. The DRPA board recently approved moving ahead. Design work will come first, beginning in 2017. Requests for quotations from engineering firms are due near the end of January. Then comes a short list. The project will include a modern design, better lighting, improved security, new tile, replacing and securing waterlines, a new entryway on at Race and 7th Streets and an elevator to the station, likely somewhere in Franklin Square Park. The heavy construction work may not happen until 2020, with the opening the following year.[8] Possible new serviceAs part of several transportation options aimed at the Philadelphia/South Jersey area, in 2005 PATCO was considering a new tram/trolley service to begin at the Franklin Square Station and continue to Spring Garden Street and Pier 70 along Columbus Boulevard, that could be extended to the redeveloping Navy Yard area and new stadium complexes in South Philadelphia. This service would cost an estimated $700 million ($157.6 million per mile), offering service every 5 minutes at peak times and every 12 minutes off-peak. Under this proposal, the service could be operated by PATCO, with free transfers between the Speedline and the streetcar/trolley at a reopened Franklin Square Station.[9][10][11] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite web |url=http://TrainWeb.org/phillynrhs/patco.html |title=PATCO History |publisher=National Railway Historical Society, Philadelphia Chapter |date=June 12, 2002 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://PhillyArchaeology.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Franklin-Square1.pdf |title=An Archeological Sensitivity Study of Franklin Square |publisher=John Milner Associates, Inc. |date=2005 |accessdate=August 20, 2014}} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.philly.com/2009-05-21/news/25273354_1_philadelphia-stations-subway-station-benjamin-franklin-bridge |title=PATCO will reopen ghost train station |newspaper=Philadelphia Inquirer |date=May 21, 2009 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} 4. ^https://www.phillymag.com/news/2017/09/21/patco-ghost-station-franklin-square-reopening-drpa/ 5. ^http://www.ridepatco.org/projects/franklin-square-station.html 6. ^https://philly.curbed.com/2018/9/21/17887594/patco-franklin-square-station-new-jersey-camden-philly 7. ^{{cite press release |url=http://RidePATCO.org/news/news.asp?param=2&pubnumber=888 |title=DRPA Board Takes First Step Toward Reopening Franklin Square Station |publisher=PATCO |date=July 15, 2009 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} 8. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.phillyvoice.com/five-year-plan-patco-plans-reopen-unused-franklin-station-philly/|title=PATCO plans to reopen dormant Franklin Square station in Philly|date=December 5, 2016|newspaper=PhillyVoice|access-date=January 8, 2017}} 9. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.philly.com/2005-02-22/news/25446159_1_light-rail-line-federal-transit-administration-port-authority-officials/2 |title=Hearings seek input for new PATCO lines |newspaper=Philadelphia Inquirer |date=February 22, 2005 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://DRPA.org/pdfs/55survey_altpa1.pdf |title=Southern New Jersey to Philadelphia Transit Study, Alternative PA-1: New Streetcar/Trolley to Franklin Square |publisher=DRPA |date=October 2005 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://GlassboroCamdenLine.com/images/uploads/2005%20Feasibility%20Study.pdf |title=Southern New Jersey to Philadelphia Transit Study |publisher=DRPA |date=October 2005 |accessdate=July 19, 2014}} External links{{Portal|Philadelphia}}
