I have added a tag to the above article that it be merged to this. Since the the station and the line existed for each other they could easily come under the same article with good redirect so has not repeat so much of the history and background in both articles.Djflem (talk) 13:06, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Tracks/Platforms[edit]

Does anyone have data on how many passanger tracks and platforms that terminal had? --Thogo (Talk) 16:15, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This and also this looks as if there were 6 platforms with two tracks each. --Thogo (Talk) 10:19, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Intro[edit]

The last of the buildings of the complex were was demolished in 1963 as was the elevated which reaches them. I can't make any sense of that sentence. Can someone who knows English better than me re-formulate it, please? Btw., which "elevated" is meant becomes only clear during the rest of the article, shouldn't that be made more specific in the intro? --Thogo (Talk) 08:10, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinate error[edit]

{{geodata-check}}

The PRR Station for passengers was located north of Exchange Place (at the foot of Montgomery Street) at what is now the foot what was formerly Railroad Avenue, now Columbus Avenue at the river. Would it also be possible to change parameters so that it is not necessary to zoom in? Thanks

I updated the coordinates and added a parameter to help display maps in a smaller scale. I'm not entirely familiar with the template parameters and how they can be used to control the interactive popup map, but when you follow the links to Google maps, the scale is appropriate.—Jim Irwin (talk) 12:09, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fulton Ferry in Brooklyn[edit]

The 1893 map shows that the Ferries from Exchange Place are Cortland Street Ferry Depot the Desbrosses Street Ferry Depot in Lower Manhattan and the the Old Fulton Ferry House in Brooklyn. Why isn't this covered in the article? ---------User:DanTD (talk) 09:29, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
