Bleecker Street / Broadway – Lafayette Street is a New York City Subway station complex in the NoHo district of Manhattan on the IRT Lexington Avenue Line and the IND Sixth Avenue Line. It is served by the: *6, D, and F trains at all times *B and M trains on weekdays *<6> train during rush hours in the peak direction *4 train during late nights The complex comprises two stations, Bleecker Street (IRT) and Broadway – Lafayette Street (IND). The transfer between the downtown IRT platform and the IND platform has been within fare control since May 19, 1957, and the corresponding free transfer from the uptown IRT platform to the rest of the station opened on September 25, 2012. ==IRT Lexington Avenue Line platforms== }} Bleecker Street on the IRT Lexington Avenue Line is a standard local station with four tracks and two side platforms. There are four tracks here, with the two center express tracks used by 4 and 5 trains during the day. Fare control is currently at platform level, with a crossunder via the IND mezzanine. It has two side platforms which were originally 5-cars long. In the 1950s, the southbound platform was extended to the south and the northbound platform was extended to the north for ten car trains. After the 2012 renovation, the northbound platform was extended to the south, and the 1950s northern extension of that platform was closed (but can still be seen upon leaving the station on a train). The station features two styles of "Bleecker Street" station identifiers made by the Grueby Faience Company in 1904. The large "Bleecker Street" plaques were assembled from 27 pieces of faience ceramic. They depict poppies. The smaller blue "B" cartouches show tulips, probably a reminder of the Dutch origins of the city. Later Vickers' mosaic tablets were installed when the station was extended, and five different colors were used for the mosaics. These mosaics were removed in the 2012 renovation of the station, and replicas of the "B" cartouches were installed throughout the station. A new MTA's Arts for Transit project was created in 2012, called ''Hive,'' by Leo Villareal. It is located at the newest section of the uptown platform in the mezzanine providing the transfer to the IND station. This new art complements the first work—''Signal'' by Mel Chin, which was added to the station complex in 1997. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bleecker Street / Broadway – Lafayette Street (New York City Subway)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
