The line started on the East side under City Hall Park, ran
via today’s 4, 5,
6 lines to just North of 33rd
street where it headed to the west side via today’s
Shuttle to Longacre Square( Now called
Times Square) and then via the 1 line
to 145 Street with a branch via today's 2
train to 180th Street Bronx Park. As they say,
the rest is history and the East side was extended northward and
the West side extended southward. The connector was severed at
both ends forming today’s Shuttle. Further extensions soon
followed. See
www.nycsubway.org for more details including historical
articles.
