Park Row (BMT station)

 

Park Row (BMT station)

Park Row was an elevated station on Park Row in Manhattan, New York City, USA. It was the terminal for services operating over the Brooklyn Bridge from the BMT Fulton Street Line, BMT Myrtle Avenue Line and their feeders.

On June 18, 1898, elevated trains began using the station, which had previously been used only for special trains running the length of the bridge. On March 5, 1944, elevated lines stopped using it, but streetcars were shifted to the elevated tracks and used them until 1954.
