History
52nd Street station is one of the original Market Street Elevated stations built by the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company; the line opened for service on March 4, 1907, between Шаблон:Stl and Шаблон:Stl stations.[1][2]
From October 2006 to February 2008, the station underwent a rehabilitation project as part of a multi-phase reconstruction of the entire western Market Street Elevated.[3] The renovated station included new elevators, escalators, lighting, and other infrastructure, as well as a new brick station house.[4] Unlike other stations in the project, 52nd Street was never closed for an extended period of time.[4] The project resulted in the station becoming compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
In April 2007, the Philadelphia Police Department labeled this intersection the "Worst Corner In The City" due to the high crime and rate of shootings on the block. There were 16 shootings within a 4-month span beginning in June 2006.[5]
Station layout
There are two side platforms connecting to a station house on the southeast corner of 52nd and Market streets. Two exit-only stairs descend to the west side of 52nd Street.
