Summit Avenue (H&M station) : ウィキペディア英語版
Journal Square Transportation Center


The Journal Square Transportation Center is a multi-modal transportation hub located on Kennedy Boulevard at Journal Square in Jersey City, New Jersey, United States.〔() Wikipmapia JSQ Trans Ctr〕 Owned and operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the complex includes a ten-story tower, a retail plaza, a bus station, a two-level parking facility, and the Journal Square station of the PATH rail transit system. The underground station has a high ceiling and a mezzanine level connecting the platforms. The upper level of the station contains a bank of escalators leading to street level, elevators to parking, and a series of escalators leading to the street-level bus bays.
==History==
The JSTC was originally the site of the Summit Avenue Station of the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad. Summit Avenue station was built on April 14, 1912. The district was renamed Journal Square in the 1920s.
The open-spandrel concrete arch bridge carrying Kennedy Boulevard and the station, built in 1926, is a pared-down version of a more ambitious elevated plaza scheme proposed by consulting engineer Abraham Burton Cohen. Passageways were suspended from the arches to connect the railroad station to bus stops on the bridge deck above.〔Cohen, A. Burton. "Hudson County Boulevard Bridge Plaza." ''Purdue Engineering Review'' 21, No. 4 (May 1926): 3-6, 22.〕 The original mid-roadway bus stop islands have since been removed.
The H&M was acquired by PATH in 1962, and reconstruction of the station began in 1968.〔(Construction of The PATH Journal Square Transportation Center; 1968 )〕 Though the cornerstone was installed on September 20, 1972, the center itself was opened in stages in 1973, 1974, and 1975〔(Port Authority:JSQ Trans Ctr history )〕 during the late phases of the Brutalist architecture movement. It is constructed over the Bergen Hill Cut, an excavated ravine, originally opened in 1834 and later used by the Jersey City Branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Freight trains on the Passaic and Harsimus Line occasionally make use of the cut to traverse the Palisades along tracks north of the mass transit system.
The center is sometimes viewed as having contributed to the decline of the district by moving the train-bus interchange, and thus pedestrians, away from other commercial activities around the square.〔Angel, Karen. "Journal Squared: A Jersey City neighborhood's housing multiplies." ''The New York Daily News''. Friday November 13, 2009. (1 ). Retrieved on November 13, 2009.〕
A statue of Jackie Robinson was dedicated at the center in 1998.〔(Robinson statue and marker )〕
