Worth Street was a local station, located at Lafayette Street and Worth Street, with two side platforms and express tracks down the middle. The station was closed on September 1 1962 due to the platform lengthening at Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall. In fact, from 1962 to 1995, Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall was named Brooklyn Bridge–Worth Street on platform signs.
This station lies beneath the sidewalk on the west side of Foley Square. When the Federal Plaza Building was in the planning stages, it was found that, because of the existence of the station, the building could not extend out to Foley Square. As a result, the structure is set far back from the street, well beyond the station. The building's plaza and fountain lie directly above the station.
