Houston Street is a local subway station on the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. There is no crossover or crossunder, although evidence of a sealed-up crossunder is present at the north end. The local tracks are at a slightly higher level than the express tracks; it is believed that this was to aid deceleration and acceleration of local trains entering and leaving the station.
