It was located next to Battery Park at the lower tip of Manhattan, New York City.

It had one island platform between two tracks and was operated as an extension of the company's Ninth Avenue Line.

The four-track station, opened March 1879, was built to provide an adequate terminal for both lines.

It was located on a very short branch line, at right angles to the old station, facing toward the ferry terminals.
