Christopher Street (PATH station) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Christopher Street (PATH station)
The Christopher Street PATH station, opened on February 25, 1908, is located on Christopher Street just west of Hudson Street in the West Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. ==History== After the September 11, 2001 attacks which resulted in the destruction of the vital World Trade Center PATH station, the Christopher Street station experienced serious overcrowding; in fact, the station became so busy that the Port Authority had to make it an exit-only station during the morning rush hour. The Port Authority planned to build a second entrance at Christopher and Bedford Street (a block and a half east of the current entrance), to ease overcrowding at the station, but local opposition effectively killed the project. Residents were concerned that the project would endanger the surrounding neighborhood's fragile historic buildings (through the vibrations that a major construction project would cause) and disrupt business and traffic in the Village. The Port Authority continues to look into the possibility of building a second entrance to service the 9th Street station, which is also opposed by some local residents. The effects of September 11 did not end quickly. In 2002, Christopher Street station was used by an average of 7,400 people per day, or about 2.701 million per year. This was more than twice as many as the 1.314 million passengers that used the station during 2001.
