The el closed in 1973. Most of the platform remained till an unreported date probably in 1998 when it was cut back to a small section near the entrance mezzanine.

Some of the ironwork canopy support of the 1893 stations survives, showing how short the original trains were. Copyright 1994,1995,1996,1998,1999 by Joseph Brennan.
