|
West Farms Square-East Tremont Avenue is a station of the New York Subway on the 5-Lexington Avenue White Plains Road Express in The Bronx. It is currently undergoing some renovation. The station is very high and has escalators to the street. Northbound, there are two extra exits that the other stations along this line lack, of which, the southern one is closed for reconstruction. The wood mezzanine has a rubberized floor and textured frosted glass windows. Just north of the station one can see the three abandoned trackways to Bronx Park, the original terminal of this line.
This station was originally known as 177th Street.
