History

udSTR\\uexdSTR!~dMFADEf\\udSTR\\uexdSTR!~dMFADEf\\udSTR ~~ ~~ ~~ to former lower level

This station was opened along with the section of the IRT White Plains Road Line from East 177th Street to 219th Street on March 3, 1917, providing access to rapid transit service to the communities of Williamsbridge and Wakefield in the Bronx. 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.^[3]^[4]^[5]

Station layout

This station opened on March 3, 1917, as a bi-level station, for IRT White Plains Road Line subway service. The upper level has always been used and the lower level was used by the IRT Third Avenue Line from October 4, 1920,^[6] to April 29, 1973. The upper level has three tracks and two island 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.^[7]

Currently, only the two outer tracks are used. The center track is not normally used in revenue service.

Exit

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. A refurbishing project in 2004–2006 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. New escalators and elevators now make this station ADA-accessible.^[8]
