• "Opened in 1908–1909 " seems odd, and you have "Opened July 19, 1909" in the infobox.
  •  Fixed The towers and stations opened at different times. I will add a building infobox later.
• "and demolished in 1972" I would move this to the end of the lead. Oh, it's already there, just delete it from here.
  •  Done
• ""traveling to and ... which traveled " repetitive.
  •  Done
• "Third Rail"' -> "Third rail"
  •  Done
• "assessed at $75,000, and " inflate?
  •  Done
• "$164,917,431" probably "$165m" would be close enough!
  •  Done
• "2019[b]).[17]" odd footnote/ref/) juxtaposition...
  • This was because the inflation footnote applies only to the parenthetical, not the rest of the sentence. The reference applies to the whole sentence.
• "59,221,354 passengers per year" presumably that was in one year, not per year.
  • Yes, that was in one year. Also, it was repetitive for me to say "per year" so I removed it. Epicgenius (talk) 17:08, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
• "across the Hudson River.[39]" overlinked.
  •  Removed
• "new PATH station " I think that's the first time you mentioned PATH, what is it?
  •  Added Sometimes I forget that people aren't familiar with NYC area transit. Oops. Epicgenius (talk) 17:08, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
• "H&M trackage.[58][18]' order.
  •  Done
• ""long[23][68] and could" move those awkward refs to the end of the sentence.
  •  Done
• "northward[72] to what " similar.
  •  Done
• "underneath Greenwich Street, which " overlinked.
  •  Removed
• No need to link common terms like "architect".
  •  Removed
• "contractor George A. Fuller.[21][13][61] " order.
  •  Done
• No need to link "brick".
  •  Removed
• Not sure why but our article on Indiana limestone has Limestone as the title capitalisation.
  • I don't know why that's the case, either. It should really be lowercase. Epicgenius (talk) 17:08, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
• "4,500 tons of terracotta" short tons? You have converted other such units.
  •  Done
• Could you link psf? It's something I've not seen used, obviously psi (for my tyres) but not psf.
  •  Done
• "historians Sarah Landau an" overlinked.
  •  Removed
• ",400 pounds per square foot" you've already used the abbreviation so why go back to the full term?
  •  Fixed I moved the link and full term to the first usage of psf.
• Ref 9 and ref 40 have a " -- " which should be an en-dash.
  •  Done

That's it. A typically excellent article, just a few tiny tweaks. On hold, cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 16:08, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
