The IRT Ninth Avenue Line, often called the Ninth Avenue Elevated or Ninth Avenue El,
was the first elevated railway in New York City.
It opened on July 3, 1868 as the West Side and Yonkers Patent Railway,
as an experimental single-track cable-powered elevated railway from Battery Place,
at the south end of Manhattan Island, northward up Greenwich Street to Cortlandt Street.
It ceased operation on June 11, 1940, after it was replaced by the IND Eighth Avenue Line
which had opened in 1932.
