Court Square is a New York City Subway station complex on the IND Crosstown Line, the IRT Flushing Line and the IND Queens Boulevard Line. The complex is located in the vicinity of One Court Square in Long Island City, Queens and is served by the: * 7, E, and G trains at all times * M train on weekdays * <7> train during rush hours in the peak direction The complex comprises three separate stations, formerly known as 23rd Street – Ely Avenue (Queens Boulevard Line), Long Island City – Court Square (Crosstown Line), and 45th Road – Court House Square (Flushing Line). Following the opening of the Citibank office tower at One Court Square, a passageway was built underneath connecting the Queens Boulevard Line and Crosstown Line stations. On December 16, 2001, service on the Queens Boulevard Line was increased by the connection of the IND 63rd Street Line, requiring G trains to terminate at Court Square on weekdays. To compensate Crosstown riders going into Queens, a free out-of-system transfer to the Flushing Line station was created. On June 3, 2011, a $47 million ADA-accessible connection between the Crosstown Line and Flushing Line stations was opened and the two stations were renamed "Court Square". In kind, the Queens Boulevard Line station, which is not ADA-compliant, was renamed "Court Square – 23rd Street". ==IRT Flushing Line platforms== }} Court Square is an elevated station on the IRT Flushing Line of the New York City Subway. Opened on November 5, 1916 as 45th Road – Court House Square, there are two side platforms and two tracks. In 2005, this station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=National Register of Historical Places - NEW YORK (NY), Queens County )〕 Both platforms have beige windscreens that run along their entire lengths and brown canopies with green frames and support columns except for a small section at their north ends. The station name plates are in the standard black in white lettering. This station has an elevated station house beneath the tracks at the extreme south end. A single staircase from each platform goes down to a waiting area/crossunder, where a turnstile bank provides entrance/exit from the station. Outside fare control, there is a token booth and two staircases going down to either western corners of 45th Road and 23rd Street.〔 The station house formerly had two more staircases leading to either eastern corner. In June 2011, they were replaced by an in-system transfer to the underground Queens Boulevard and Crosstown platforms.〔〔 The P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center is nearby at 46th and Jackson Avenues.〔 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「Court Square (New York City Subway)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
