The Ninth Avenue El (Elevated) at 110th Street, New York City, c. 1900. The IRT Ninth Avenue Line was the first elevated railway in New York City. It opened on July 3, 1868 and ceased operation on June 11, 1940. This curve from 110th Street to Eighth Avenue was the highest ever built at 100 feet (30 m) above the street and made a 90-degree turn from Ninth Ave on to 110th Street, then another on to Eighth Avenue. It was dubbed "Suicide Curve" as some people leapt to their death from this location.
