I see a mention that there was a renovation in the 1970s, but it is not covered in the article.
 Done--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 17:05, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Reference needed for the second paragraph of Station layout
@Kew Gardens 613: Do you have references for these two above points? epicgenius (talk) 02:20, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
@Epicgenius and 1.02 editor: I am working on it. I have a reference for the platform extension in 1970, which I will add, but am working on the tiling.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 11:00, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
@Kew Gardens 613: any update on this? 1.02 editor (T/C) 13:59, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
@1.02 editor:  Done--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 17:05, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Is the bus stop part of the station? if it is not then it should not be covered in such great detail and the table should be excluded. If it is, do mention more about the bus station and include information about its history if different from the subway station.
The bus stops are just outside the station entrances. epicgenius (talk) 02:20, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
Do ensure to update the article, as i see from the article that the renovations are expected to end soon.
Will do.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 17:05, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

@1.02 editor: Due to the Jewish holiday of Passover and the Sabbath on Saturday, I won't be editing from tonight until Saturday night at the earliest. I wanted to let you know to make sure that you know that I am still committed to addressing the aforementioned issues.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 21:49, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

@1.02 editor: Due to Passover, I won't be able to do any editing from tonight until Thursday evening at the earliest. I am still committed to addressing your concerns with the article. Thanks for your patience and stay safe. I will do a similar rewrite to Bay Ridge Avenue to address the issues you brought up in the review. @Epicgenius: Thanks so much for helping out!--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 23:09, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
Kew Gardens 613, no problem. @1.02 editor: Can I ask that you defer making the decision about whether to promote all the 4th Avenue Line pages until Thursday at the earliest? I would like to nominate these all as part of a single DYK. epicgenius (talk) 23:14, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
@1.02 editor: All the issues mentioned have been dealt with.--Kew Gardens 613 (talk) 17:05, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
