The BMT 63rd Street Line is a rapid transit line of the BMT division of the New York City Subway system. This short line connects the express tracks of the BMT Broadway Line from 57th Street – Seventh Avenue to Lexington Avenue – 63rd Street, where it stub-ends. Two diamond crossovers are located just west of the station on both levels to enable trains to switch between this line and the IND 63rd Street Line, where the F train currently runs.
The line is being continued east towards Second Avenue. It will turn north to connect with the under construction IND Second Avenue Line tracks.

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or line:
“The street is full of humiliations to the proud.”

“Gascoigne, Ben Jonson, Greville, Raleigh, Donne,

And spaced by many years, each line an act
Through which few labor, which no men retract.
This passion is the scholar’s heritage,”
