NYCT F Line • New York NY • 12/26/11

            West Fourth Street was one of the 28 stations opened on September 10, 1932, as part of the first line of the Independent Subway System (IND), the Eighth Avenue Line, from Chambers Street to Inwood–207th Street.  At the time, only the upper level was used, with service on the lower level beginning on December 15, 1940 with the opening of the Sixth Avenue local tracks.  The Sixth Avenue express tracks were built later and were put into through service on November 27, 1967; prior to then, the express tracks here and at 34th Street–Herald Square were used as terminal tracks only.  The station was named "West Fourth Street," as opposed to merely "Fourth Street," because the planners of the Independent Subway System believed there would be confusion between this station and "South Fourth Street," a proposed transfer station on the never-built IND Second System in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.  This station, near Washington Square, serves the IND Sixth Avenue Line (B, D, F and M trains) and the IND Eighth Avenue Line (A, C and E trains).  An F train is approaching the station on December 26, 2011.
