History

[edit]

The station opened on September 10, 1932, as part of the city-operatedIndependent Subway System (IND)'s initial segment, theEighth Avenue Line betweenChambers Street and207th Street.^[2]^[4] Construction of the whole line cost $191.2 million (equivalent to $4,406.5 million in 2024.) While theIRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line already provided parallel service, the new Eighth Avenue subway via Central Park West and Frederick Douglass Boulevard provided an alternative route.^[5]

On July 3, 1997, a Queens-bound A train derailed just north of the station as it was traversing a switch. 15 passengers were injured in the incident.^[6]

There is no trim line at this station, but there are mosaic name tablets reading "135TH ST." in whitesans-serif lettering on a Prussian green background and black border. Small tile captions reading "135" run along the wall at regular intervals between the name tablets, and under the name tablets are directional captions, all in white lettering on a black background. Hunter green I-beam columns run along the platforms at regular intervals, alternating ones having the standard black station name plate with white lettering.

This station is the only local station with six tracks between twoside platforms and is one of only three stations in the entire subway system that features six tracks on the same level, within the same tunnel (the others areDeKalb Avenue andHoyt–Schermerhorn Streets, both inDowntown Brooklyn). The two outermost tracks are used by local trains stopping at this station, while the two innermost tracks are used by express trains. The middle tracks in each direction are lay-up tracks and not used in revenue service.^[7] Allfare controls are at platform level and there are nomezzanines, crossovers, or crossunders.

This station is located nearby theCity College of New York.

Exits

[edit]

The full-time booths are at the 135th Street end. The booth at the 137th Street exit has been removed, and the 137th Street exits used to be part-time only.^[8] There were restrooms at the 137th Street end of the southbound platform. Both street staircases at this end were built with their entry points facingSt. Nicholas Park.

From the southern end of the station, there is a staircase on the west side of St. Nicholas Avenue at West 135th Street to the southbound platform, within St. Nicholas Park, a staircase from the northeastern corner of St. Nicholas Avenue and West 135th Street to the northbound platform, and two staircases to the northbound platform from the southeastern corner of St. Nicholas Avenue and West 135th Street. At the northern end of the station, there is a staircase leading to the southbound platform from the western side of St. Nicholas Avenue at West 137th Street, within St. Nicholas Park, and an exit-only staircase from the northbound platform leading to the southeastern corner of St. Nicholas Avenue and West 137th Street.^[9] This exit features an array of stone casting in a Cathedral-like setting, originally built in 1932.
