The Archer Avenue Subway was conceived as part of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's 1968 expansion plans along with the 63rd Street line, this line is one of the newest sections of the system. The Archer Avenue subway was opened on December 11, 1988, extending the J line back east from 121st Street to Jamaica Center, and the present J/Z skip-stop pattern was implemented.
Elimination of double letters services of the New York City Subway happened in May of 1985.

The 168th Street, 160th Street, and the Sutphin Boulevard stations of the BMT Jamaica Avenue El from was demolished in 1977-79. The J service got cut back and now ran to Queens Boulevard, and then cut back again to 121st Street on April 15, 1985. This was done because the rest of the BMT Jamaica Line was being connected to the Archer Avenue Subway.

The JJ ran to Jamaica Center, and it used to be elevated all the way. It was demolished in the late 60s, and the JJ ran to 121st street. In the late 1970s, the JJ ran to Jamaica, but the two stations were underground. The JJ died in 1986, and the J continues.
Pretty cool history on this route...
