Westchester Square–East Tremont Avenue (formerly Westchester Square) is a local station on the IRT Pelham Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of East Tremont and Westchester Avenues in Westchester Square, Bronx, it is served by the 6 train at all times except weekdays in the peak direction, when the <6> train takes over.

Station layout

{{NYCS Platform Layout IRT Pelham Line/local/elevated with unused middle track}}{{stack|float=left|{{Westchester Yard leads}}}}

This elevated station has three tracks and two side platforms. The center track is not used in regular service.

The street staircase features a stained glass piece by Romare Bearden. There are glass block tile and "uptown" and "downtown" directional mosaics in the mezzanine. From the northbound platform, there is a good view of the Bronx Whitestone and Throgs Neck Bridges. Westchester Yard is located railroad north of the station, to the west of the Pelham Line itself. There are no windscreens, and the canopy is new. The mezzanine artwork features an interesting geometric sculpture on the northbound side.

In 1981, the MTA listed the station among the 69 most deteriorated stations in the subway system.[3] Under the 2015–2019 MTA Capital Program, the station, along with thirty other New York City Subway stations, will undergo a complete overhaul and would be entirely closed for up to 6 months. Updates would include cellular service, Wi-Fi, charging stations, improved signage, and improved station lighting.[4][5] However, these renovations are being deferred until the 2020–2024 Capital Program due to a lack of funding.[6] As part of a revision to the Capital Program in April 2018, elevators will be installed at this station and it will become ADA-accessible.[7]

Exit

The station's only exit is a mezzanine beneath the tracks in Westchester Square. Outside fare control, a stair leads to the northeast corner of Westchester Avenue and Lane Avenue.[8]
