Station: 116th Street-Columbia University (IRT West Side Line)
From nycsubway.org
| IRT West Side Line |
Overview
Opened: 10/27/1904
Local station with three tracks and two side platforms. A picture of the school is in the small mosaic tile border. There was a central entry hall on the median of Broadway until the 1960s, at which time it was removed and replaced by the present stairways along the sidewalks. Fortunately, the station already had a crossover that could be extended out over the local tracks to the sidewalks.
