What does El, the final word in this sentence, mean?

Su apartamento estaba situado en una manzana de viviendas de un vecindario obrero, no muy lejos de la calle Ciento vienticinco y Broadway El.

Thanks!

Do you happen to know what city that the 125th & Broadway is in? Could that "el" be an [elevated] railway stop?
