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 city government took over the IRT's operations on June 12, 1940.[7][8]

This station was added to theNational Register of Historic Places on March 30, 2005.[9] It was renovated in 2007 at a cost of $18.85 million (equivalent to $28,585,083 in 2024). At the same time, another project was undertaken to install elevators at the station, making itADA-accessible for $2.43 million (equivalent to $3,684,974 in 2024).[10]

This elevated station has three tracks and twoside platforms[11] with the center express track only used for select AM rush hour 5 trains terminating at Gun Hill Road.

Due to the width of Pelham Parkway and its service roads, the entire station, including the platform windscreens, canopies, and outer street support columns, is enclosed in concrete over the steel structure. A green trim line runs on top of the windscreens and no columns support the canopies.

Exits

[edit]

This station has twomezzanines, both of which are beneath the tracks and platforms. The full-time one is at the south end and has a staircase and elevator from each platform going down to a waiting area/crossunder, where aturnstile bank provides access to and from the station. The Manhattan-bound platform also has a short, up-only escalator from the station house. Outsidefare control, there is a token booth, one staircase and elevator going down to the southwest corner of Pelham Parkway's south service road and White Plains Road, and one up-escalator from the southeast corner of the same intersection. The three elevators make this station fullyADA-accessible.[12]

The north station house, which was renovated in the late 1990s, is unstaffed, containing two staircases from each platform, two more from either northern corners of Pelham Parkway's north service road and White Plains Road, and full height turnstiles.[12]

Artwork

[edit]

In 1976, with funding from theExxon Corporation, this station, as well as three others citywide, received new "artfully humorous graffiti" murals and artwork.[13] Local designer Peter Bradford Associates received $5,000 to repaint the station and put "16 bright posters of animals and parts of animals" on each platform wall, in the theme of the nearbyBronx Zoo.[13]

The current artwork at this station, installed during a 2004-2007 renovation, is calledBack to the Garden by Tomie Arai. It consists of stained glass windows on the platform windscreens depicting images of trees and plants, inspired by the nearbyzoo andbotanical garden.
