South Ferry loops

The South Ferry loops are a pair of New York City Subway underground stations in South Ferry, Manhattan. The outer loop is serviced by the 1 train at all times; the inner loop is only used for turnarounds. The stations, the southernmost in Manhattan built by the Interborough Rapid Transit Company, are two side platforms on curved sections of track that form balloon loops; however, free transfers were unavailable between the platforms and each platform was meant to be served by its own line. The most recent configuration consisted of the IRT Broadway – Seventh Avenue Line on the outer loop platform and the IRT Lexington Avenue Line on the inner loop platform. Both stations are individually named South Ferry; the name "South Ferry loops" is used to distinguish these platforms from the successor station, South Ferry, that was used by the Broadway – Seventh Avenue Line's 1 service, from 2009 to 2012. The outer loop platform reopened on April 4, 2013, to provide temporary replacement service for the newer station that was closed because of damage caused by Hurricane Sandy.
