14th Street was a local station on New York's demolished IRT Third Avenue Line. It had two levels. The lower level was served by local trains and had two tracks and two side platforms. It was built first. The upper level was built as part of the Dual Contracts and had one track that bypassed the station and served express trains. The next stop to the north was 18th Street. The next stop to the south was Ninth Street. The station closed on May 12, 1955. Although this station was located above the Third Avenue subway station on the BMT Canarsie Line, the two stations were not connected.
