Wall Street is a station on the IRT Lexington Avenue Line of the New York City Subway, located at the intersection of Broadway and Wall Street. It is served by the 4 train at all times and the 5 train at all times except late nights.
This station opened on June 12, 1905, as a one-stop extension of the original subway from Fulton Street.
On January 6, 1994, Automated Fare Collection turnstiles went into service at this station, and at the Whitehall Street station.
Wall Street is an underground, two-tracked station, with two side platforms that are slightly offset from one another.
The standard IRT name tablet mosaics are original as well as the fancy ceiling accents and the iron pillars. On the southbound platform is a wooden token booth and ticket chopper, wooden restroom doors on each side. The walls on the platforms are clad in pink stone at the bottom, followed by white tiles, the name of the station in white letters and blue mosaics, and decorated tiles at the top. The top part is decorated with tiles depicting vines or artistic depictions of a New Amsterdam stapled colonial house with the palisade wall in front of it, which gave today's Wall Street its name.
The entrances are covered with curved metal roofs painted green. The metal is sculpted with patterns made to resemble wood or leaves.
There is a crossunder about midway along the length of the platforms, and a lesser-used one at the north end.
There are three exit areas. On the south end, between Rector Street and Exchange Place, there are two exits to either side of Broadway, with the northbound exits on the east side and the southbound exits on the west side. There are faux kiosks on the southbound side.
