The 14th Street PATH station, opened on February 25, 1908, is located on 14th Street and Sixth Avenue (Avenue of the Americas), at the south end of Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood.

Layout

This PATH station has side platforms, which are not connected by a crossover or crossunder. The southbound platform shares a mezzanine area with the IND Sixth Avenue Line's station at 14th Street, yet the northbound platform exits directly to the street.

The original station, opened in 1908, was modified slightly as a result of the building of the Sixth Avenue Line.^{[citation needed]} The platforms were extended to the south, and the northern ends were closed. This allowed the downtown platform to share a street entrance with the downtown IND subway.

North of this station is the abandoned 19th Street station, which opened on February 25, 1908 and closed on August 1, 1954. It is presently used for storing mechanical equipment and is still visible from trains travelling between 14th Street and 23rd Street.
