== History ==
The station opened on June 15, 1908. Before the line was extended to 23rd Street, the northern terminus of the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad was a station located at 19th Street (now closed).<ref name="1908opening">{{cite news |title=To Extend Hudson Tunnel; Trains to Begin Running to Twenty-third Street on Monday |newspaper=The New York Times |date=June 12, 1908 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1908/06/12/archives/to-extend-hudson-tunnel-trains-to-begin-running-to-twentythird.html |accessdate=2009-08-16}}</ref>
 
▲== Station layout ==
This PATH station has two [[side platform]]s, but passengers must descend one level, walk through an underpass, and go up another stairwell, leading to the [[New York City Subway]] mezzanine. The PATH fare control is located in the underpass, which is underneathlocated between the local and express tracks of the [[IND Sixth Avenue Line]].<ref name="tracks">{{NYCS const|trackref|trackbook3}}</ref>
 
There is a connection to the INDSixth Avenue Line at [[23rd Street (IND Sixth Avenue Line)|their platforms]], served by the {{NYCS trains|Sixth local}}, which are located onsurround eitherboth sidesides of the PATH station. The express tracks, used by the {{NYCS trains|Sixth express}}, are located below the PATH tracks on a lower level.<ref name="tracks" /> The express tracks were constructed in the mid-1960s using the "deep-bore" tunneling method and both are not visible from the station.<ref name="nycs">{{NYCS ref|http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/stations?221:174|IND 6th Avenue|23rd Street}}</ref> On the express tracks on the lower level, the deep-bore tunnel's round shape becomes square below this station and at 14th Street stations, where provisions for lower level platforms were built.

===Exits===▼
The northbound platform can be accessed from the exits on the east side of 23rd Street and Sixth Avenue, while the southbound platform can be accessed from the exits on the west side. There are two exits to each corner of that intersection, which serve both the subway and PATH platforms in each direction.<ref name=maps/> The PATH station has direct entrances only from the IND station on either side, which are accessed only by going below the subway platform in the respective direction and then ascending onto the PATH platform. The 33rd Street-bound PATH is accessed from the northbound subway platform, while the New Jersey-bound PATH is accessed from the southbound subway platform. The southern entrances on each side appear to be part of the original 1911 PATH entrances.<ref name=maps>{{Cite NYCS map|neighborhood|Chelsea}}</ref>▼
