It is located at the intersection of 168th Street and Broadway in Washington Heights, Manhattan and served by the A train at all times,[3] and the C train at all times except late nights.[4] The 1 train normally stops here at all times, but will not stop here from January 5, 2019 to early 2020 due to construction.[5] {{Clear}}Station layout{{NYCS Platform Layout 168th Street Station}}The IRT portion of the station is very deep and requires the use of elevators to reach the platform after fare control, which is on a full length mezzanine above the higher IND portion. Another set of elevators connecting the IND platforms and tracks to the mezzanine, and an elevator between the mezzanine to the street, make that portion handicapped-accessible. The IRT section is not ADA accessible since the platforms have no elevators (reaching the elevators to fare control requires climbing short staircases). ExitsThe full-time fare control area is at the center of the mezzanine, and has a turnstile bank, token booth, and one staircase and one elevator going up to the southeast corner of West 168th Street and Saint Nicholas Avenue. The part-time side at the north end of the mezzanine has HEET turnstiles and three staircases, two to the southwest corner of Broadway and 169th Street and one to the northwest corner. An exit-only turnstile in the middle of the mezzanine, near the corridor leading to the IRT platforms, leads to a staircase going up to north end of Mitchell Square Park on the south side of West 168th Street between Broadway and Saint Nicholas Avenue.[6] The passageway leading to the IRT elevators is just beyond the full-time fare control area. There are two exit stairs past this part-time fare control area, both of which diverge in opposite directions near the southwest corner of Broadway and 168th Street.[6] The southernmost portion of the mezzanine is closed. It features a passageway outside fare control with exits to 167th Street.[7][9] The closed mezzanine area is now used for New York City Transit employees only. The whole area was closed in the 1980s for safety reasons.[8] {{anchor|IRT Broadway – Seventh Avenue Line platforms}}IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line platforms{{Infobox NYCS| name = 168 Street | bg_color = #E20F00 | image = 168th Street IRT Broadway 2.JPG | image_caption = Uptown platform looking south with passenger bridge connecting to the downtown platform | division = IRT | line = IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line | service = closed | service_custom = Closed | platforms = 2 side platforms | tracks = 2 | structure = Underground | wifi = yes | code = 302 | type = tempclosed | open_date = {{start date and age|1906|April|14|p=y}} | close_date = {{start date and age|2019|01|05|p=y}} | rebuilt = {{start date and age|2020|p=y}} | accessible = mezzanine | next_north = {{NYCS next | station=181st Street | line=IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line | service=none}} | next_south = {{NYCS next | station=157th Street | line=IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line | service=none}} | legend = {{NYCS infobox legend|alltimes}} | embedded = {{Infobox NRHP | embed = yes | name = 168th Street Subway Station (IRT) | added = March 30, 2005 | mpsub = New York City Subway System MPS | refnum = 05000232[9] }} }}{{Stack|float=right|{{NYCS 2-tracked side platform station |1=181st Street |l1=181 St |2=157th Street |l2=157 St |code=IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line |color=Seventh |deg=330 }} }}168th Street on the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line has two tracks and two side platforms.[10] HistoryThe West Side Branch of the first subway was extended northward to a temporary terminus of 221st Street and Broadway on March 12, 1906 with the station at 168th Street not yet open.[11] This extension was served by shuttle trains operating between 157th Street and 221st Street until May 30, 1906 when express trains began running through to 221st Street.[12][13] The 168th Street station opened for service on April 14, 1906.[14] In 1948, platforms on the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line from 103rd Street to 238th Street were lengthened to 514 feet to allow full ten-car express trains to platform. Previously the stations could only platform six car local trains. The platform extensions were opened in stages. On April 6, 1948, the stations from 103rd Street to Dyckman Street had their platform extensions opened, with the exception of 125th Street, which had its extension opened on June 11, 1948.[15][16] On December 28, 1950, the New York City Board of Transportation issued a report concerning the construction of bomb shelters in the subway system. Five deep stations in Washington Heights, including the 168th Street station, were considered to be ideal for being used as bomb-proof shelters. The program was expected to cost $104,000,000. These shelters were expected to provide limited protection against conventional bombs, while providing protection against shock waves and air blast, as well as from the heat and radiation from an atomic bomb. To become suitable as shelters, the stations would require water-supply facilities, first-aid rooms, and additional bathrooms.[17] Between July 5 and September 8, 1997, trains did not stop at the station while the elevators were modernized.[18] In 2005, the station was added to the National Register of Historic Places. Starting January 5, 2019, until early 2020, the station would be closed so the elevator cars can be replaced, and elevator shafts, mechanical components, and the stairways are upgraded. During this time, a free out-of-system transfer will be provided to the {{NYCS trains|Eighth far north|bold}} at Inwood–207th Street, from both 207th Street and 215th Street. After the station reopens, a rear passageway at the lower mezzanine level will be reopened to allow passengers to board and alight on different sides of the elevator cabs. It is unclear whether the elevator operators will keep their jobs after the elevators' replacement.[19][20] Station designThis deep station has a high arched tiled ceiling and white globe lights on ornate fixtures hanging from the walls and ceiling on the north half. The south half, where the platforms were extended in the 1950s, has a much lower ceiling and large marble columns with alternating ones having the standard black station name plates in white lettering, but the name tablets and trim line are the same as those on the north half of the station. There is a closed stairway on the extreme northern end of the northbound platform leading to an unknown location. Near the north end of the station, there are two pedestrian overpasses above the tracks, each of which has two staircases going down to each platform. On the western side of the bridges, several steps above the southbound platform, there is a lower concourse area with four elevators, one of which is staffed. They lead to an unstaffed fare control area on an upper mezzanine level, where a turnstile bank leads to two staircases going up to the southwest corner of Broadway and West 168th Street. A corridor within fare control leads to the IND mezzanine. The northern open bridge and northbound platform features a passageway east of the northbound side to an eastern elevator shaft. This shaft contained the original elevators to and from the platforms, but was partially destroyed when the IND platforms were built. There is an emergency exit in this shaft, though it is currently closed for renovations.[21] Elevator operatorsIn 2004, the number of elevator attendants at the station was reduced to one per station as a result of budget cuts by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). The agency had intended to remove all the attendants, but kept one in each station after many riders protested. The change saved $1.2 million a year.[22] In November 2007, the MTA proposed savings cuts to help reduce the agency's deficit. As part of the plan, all elevator operators at 168th Street, along with those in four other stations in Washington Heights, would have been cut.[23] On December 7, 2007, the MTA announced that it would not remove the remaining elevator operators at 168th Street, along with those in four other stations in Washington Heights. The move was intended to save $1.7 million a year, but was not implemented due to pushback from elected officials and residents from the area.[24] In October 2018, the MTA again proposed removing the elevator operators at the five stations, but this decision was reversed after dissent from the Transport Workers' Union.[25] The elevator attendants served as a way to reassure passengers as the elevators are the only entrance to the platforms, and passengers often waited for the elevators with an attendant.[26] The attendants at the five stations are primarily maintenance and cleaning workers who suffered injuries that made it hard for them to continue doing their original jobs.[27] Service historyThe station was served by Seventh Avenue express trains from 1906 to 1959, after which the station has been served by local 1 trains.[28] From 1989-2005, the 9 service, a skip-stop variant of the 1, went to the station.[29] GalleryIND Eighth Avenue Line platforms{{Infobox NYCS| name = 168 Street | bg_color = #11117D | accessible = yes | acc_note = IND Eighth Avenue Line platforms only | image = Washington Heights-168th Street.jpg | image_caption = | division = IND | line = IND Eighth Avenue Line | service = Eighth north | platforms = 2 island platforms cross-platform interchange | tracks = 4 | structure = Underground | wifi = yes | code = 148 | open_date = {{start date and age|1932|September|10|p=y}}[30] | next_north = {{NYCS next | station=175th Street | line=IND Eighth Avenue Line | service=Eighth far north}} {{NYCS next|terminal=(Terminal)|service= Eighth north|exclude=A|time=show}} | next_south = {{NYCS next |type=local| station=163rd Street–Amsterdam Avenue | line=IND Eighth Avenue Line | service=Eighth north local}} {{NYCS next | type=express | line=IND Eighth Avenue Line | station=145th Street | service=Eighth north express}} | next_north_acc = {{NYCS next | station=175th Street | line=IND Eighth Avenue Line | service=Eighth far north}} {{NYCS next|terminal=none|service= Eighth north|exclude=A|time=show}} | next_south_acc = {{NYCS next | station=125th Street | line=IND Eighth Avenue Line | service=Eighth north}} | legend = {{NYCS infobox legend|allexceptnights}}{{NYCS infobox legend|alltimes}}{{NYCS infobox legend|nightsonly}} }}{{Stack|float=right|{{Routemap |title=Track layout |title-bg=#{{NYCS color|Eighth}} |style=margin-top:10px;margin-left:10px;float:right; |legend =track |map= uvSTR!~MFADEg ~~ ~~ ~~ to 174 St Yard udSTR!~dMFADEg\\uvSTRfg\\udSTR!~dMFADEg ~~ ~~ ~~ to 175 St udSTRf\\uvÜST\\udSTRg uvSTR\\uvÜST udSTR\\uvÜST\\udSTR uv-SHI2r\\uvSTR\\uvSHI2l- udSTR\\dBS\\uvSTR\\dBS\\udSTR udSTR\\dBS\\uvSTR\\dBS\\udSTR udSTR\\dBS\\uvSTR\\dBS\\udSTR udSTR\\dBS\\uvSTR\\dBS\\udSTR uvSHI2l-\\uvSTR\\uv-SHI2r uvÜST\\uvSTR uvSTRf\\uvSTRg utdSTR!~dMFADEf\\uvSTR\\utdSTR!~dMFADEf ~~ ~~ ~~ Express to 145 St uvSTR!~MFADEf ~~ ~~ ~~ Local to 163 St }} }}168th Street is an express station on the IND Eighth Avenue Line that opened on September 10, 1932,[31] and has four tracks and two island platforms. Contrary to the usual express station layout, the inner tracks serve the C local trains while the outer tracks serve the A express trains. This is to make it easier for C trains to terminate here, and turn around to make the southbound trip to Brooklyn. South of this station, the outer tracks descend to a lower level below the inner tracks, creating a two-over-two track layout. North of the station, the inner tracks continue north under Broadway to 174th Street Yard while the outer tracks turn sharply under Fort Washington Avenue before continuing to Inwood–207th Street.[10] Both outer track walls have a reddish purple with a black border, but no name tablets, and small "168" signs below them in white numbering on a black border. This station has a full length mezzanine above the platforms and tracks. The station is planned to be renovated starting in 2016 as part of the 2010–2014 MTA Capital Program. An MTA study conducted in 2015 found that 48% of components were out of date.[8] Service historyWhen the line opened, this station was served by an AA local train from 168th Street to Chambers Street/World Trade Center.[32] It was discontinued in 1933 when the CC was created to run local along the IND Eighth Avenue and Concourse lines. It was resurrected in 1940 when the BB (later B) was created.[33] The AA, which only ran outside rush hours after 1940,[33] was renamed K in 1985 and completely replaced by the C{{'s}} midday service on December 11, 1988.[34][35] The original BB train, beginning with the opening of the Sixth Avenue Line on December 15, 1940, ran as a rush-hour only local service starting at 168th Street–Washington Heights. The designation "B" was originally intended to designate express trains originating in Washington Heights and going to Midtown Manhattan on the IND Sixth Avenue Line.[36][33] On March 1, 1998, the B and the C switched northern terminals, ending B service to this station and bringing C trains to this station at all times except late nights.[36][37] The A has always served this station since its inception in 1932.[36][8] GalleryNearby points of interestNearby points of interest include NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, Hudson River waterfront parks, and remnants of the Audubon Ballroom.[6] {{Clear}}References1. ^{{cite news |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1948/06/30/archives/transfer-points-under-higher-fare-board-of-transportation-lists.html |title=Transfer Points Under Higher Fare |date=June 30, 1948 |p=19}} 2. ^{{NYCS const|riderref}} 3. ^{{NYCS const|timetable|a}} 4. ^{{NYCS const|timetable|c}} 5. ^{{NYCS const|timetable|1}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=MTA Neighborhood Maps: Washington Heights|url=http://web.mta.info/maps/neighborhoods/mn/M20_washington_hts_2015.pdf|publisher=Metropolitan Transportation Authority|accessdate=December 31, 2016|date=2015}} 7. ^http://indsecondsystem.weebly.com/168th-st.html 8. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Review of the A and C Lines|url=http://web.mta.info/nyct/service/pdf/AC_LineReview.pdf|publisher=Metropolitan Transportation Authority|accessdate=January 19, 2016|date=December 11, 2015}} 9. ^{{Cite web |url=http://nrhp.focus.nps.gov |title=NPS Focus |work=National Register of Historic Places |publisher=National Park Service |accessdate=December 24, 2011}} 10. ^1 {{NYCS const|trackref|trackbook3}} 11. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1907/01/14/archives/farthest-north-in-town-by-the-interborough-take-a-trip-to-the-new.html|title=Farthest North in Town by the Interborough – Take a Trip to the New Station, 225th Street West – It's Quite Like the Country – You Might Be in Dutchess County, but You Are Still In Manhattan Borough – Place Will Bustle Soon|date=January 14, 1907|work=The New York Times|page=18|issn=0362-4331|access-date=October 10, 2016}} 12. ^{{Cite news|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1906/05/30/101426453.pdf|title=Express to 221st Street: Will Run In the Subway To-day–New 181st Street Station Ready.|last=|first=|date=May 30, 1906|work=|newspaper=The New York Times|access-date=October 10, 2016|via=}} 13. ^{{Cite web|url=https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/15/1906_IRT_map_north.png|title=Interborough Rapid Transit Company Operating Subway And All Elevated Lines In New York City|last=|first=|date=1906|website=Wikimedia Commons|publisher=Interborough Rapid Transit Company|access-date=October 10, 2016}} 14. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1906/04/15/archives/mob-burns-two-negroes-first-hangs-them-to-goddess-of-liberty-in.html|title=New Subway Station Open|last=|first=|date=April 15, 1906|work=|newspaper=The New York Times|page=1|issn=0362-4331|access-date=October 10, 2016|via=}} 15. ^{{Cite book|url=http://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015023094926|title=Report for the three and one-half years ending June 30, 1949.|date=1949|publisher=New York City Board of Transportation}} 16. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1948/07/10/archives/more-long-platforms-five-subway-stations-on-irt-to-accommodate.html|title=More Long Platforms – Five Subway Stations on IRT to Accommodate 10-Car Trains|date=July 10, 1948|page=8|newspaper=The New York Times|issn=0362-4331|access-date=March 27, 2016}} 17. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1950/12/29/archives/subway-shelters-to-cost-104000000-proposed-for-city-board-would.html|title=SUBWAY SHELTERS TO COST $104,000,000 PROPOSED FOR CITY;
