History

[edit]

This station was built under theDual Contracts. It opened on March 3, 1917, as part of an extension of the IRT White Plains Road Line fromEast 177th Street–East Tremont Avenue toEast 219th Street–White Plains Road, providing the Bronx communities ofWilliamsbridge andWakefield with access to rapid transit service. Service on the new portion of the line was operated as a four-car shuttle from 177th Street due to the power conditions at the time.^[4]^[5]^[6]

The lower level was used by theIRT Third Avenue Line from October 4, 1920,^[7] until the line's abandonment on April 29, 1973.^[8]

The city government took over the IRT's operations on June 12, 1940.^[9]^[10] The station was renovated in 2007 at a cost of $31.68 million.^[11]

The station was designed as a bi-level station. The upper level has three tracks and twoisland platforms, while the lower level had two tracks and one wide island platform. North of the station, the lower level tracks rose and joined, making a five track line for a short distance. From west to east, they were as follows: White Plains Road Line southbound local, Third Avenue Line southbound, White Plains Road Line center express, Third Avenue Line northbound, White Plains Road Line northbound local.^[12]

Exit

[edit]

The station's only exit is at a street-level station house at the north side of Gun Hill Road in the median of White Plains Road. The mid-2000s refurbishment removed the Third Avenue el level and upgraded the station with the new station house at street level. The original station house was one short block north at East 211th Street. Newescalators andelevators now make this stationADA-accessible.^[13]
