Delancey Street

Delancey Street, also known as Delancey Street-Essex Street, is a local subway station on the IND Sixth Avenue Line. There is a transfer here to Essex Street station on the J, M, and Z lines. This station is served by the F train.

This station opened on January 1, 1936 as an extension of the IND Sixth Avenue Line. There are two tracks and two side platforms. The tile band is lavender blue with a grape border and two tiles high. Name tablets say "DELANCEY ST." in white lettering on a grape background with a lavender blue border. Wall tiles have "DELANCEY" in large white lettering in a black background. Large Ds in white lettering on a purple background have been implemented on tiled I-beams at the uptown platform. There is no mezzanine in this station so fare control is in the waiting area on each platform.
