Holland Park is aLondon Underground station, on Holland Park Avenue. It is on theCentral line betweenShepherd's Bush andNotting Hill Gate stations, and is located inLondon fare zone 2.
The original building was typical of those designed byHarry Bell Measures for the stations of theCentral London Railway that opened on 30 July 1900. It was given a flat roof in the hope that commercial development would take place on top, as atQueensway station, but so far this has not happened. The building was refurbished in the 1990s.
On 28 July 1958 one passenger died as a result of afire on a Central line train at Holland Park.[6] There was an incident in August 2013 in which smoke started to fill the station after a train's brakes malfunctioned.[7][8]
The tube station is named afterHolland Park, a park in westLondon, although the term also refers to the residential area to the north of the park.
The station was closed for lift replacement works and refurbishment from 2 January 2016 until it reopened in August of the same year.[9] This station was the last of the deep level underground stations to retain the original 1950s signage until the refurbishment.[citation needed]
London Buses routes31,94,148,228 andN207 serve the station.
