Description

Byens Rådhus, også kendt som Byens Rådhus Loop, var den oprindelige sydlige terminalstation for den første linje af New York City Subway, bygget af Interborough Rapid Transit Company, kaldet "Manhattan Main Line", og nu en del af IRT Lexington Avenue Line. Åbnet den 27. oktober 1904, var denne station, der ligger under det offentlige område foran Rådhuset, designet til at være prydestykke for den nye metro. Platformen og mezzaninen har Guastavino-fliser, ovenlysvinduer, farvet glasfliser og messingkrystallys. Den af Rafael Guastavino-designede station er unik i systemet for anvendelsen af romansk genoplivningsarkitektur.

Stationen blev bygget på en kurve og kunne kun rumme fem-vogns tog på 257 fod, hvilket viste sig at være ineffektivt, da antallet af passagerer steg, og togene blev forlænget til 10 vogne. På grund af infrastrukturens mangler, samt dens nærhed til den nærliggende Brooklyn Bridge station, blev passagertransporten indstillet den 31. december 1945, selvom stationen stadig bruges som en vendingesløjfe for 6 og <6>​ tog.
