Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox station
Back of the Hill station is a surface stop on the light rail MBTA Green Line E branch, located in the Mission Hill neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It is named after, and primarily serves, the adjacent Back of the Hill apartment complex, a Section 8 development for elderly and disabled residents. Back of the Hill is located on the street running section of the E branch on South Huntington Avenue. The station has no platforms; passengers wait in bus shelters (shared with route 39 buses) on the sidewalks and cross a traffic lane to reach Green Line trains.[1]
History
The Boston Elevated Railway opened streetcar tracks on the newly-laid-out South Huntington Avenue between Centre Street and Huntington Avenue on May 11, 1903. The company began Jamaica Plain–Park Street service via South, Centre, South Huntington, and Huntington as a branch of existing Boston–Brookline service on Huntington Avenue.[2][3]Шаблон:Rp All Huntington Avenue service (except for Шаблон:Bts and Шаблон:Bts short turns) operated on South Huntington after September 10, 1938.[4] The line became part of the Metropolitan Transit Authority in 1947, and part of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) in 1967; it was designated as the E Branch of the MBTA Green Line in 1967.[5]
By the 1970s, E Branch trains stopped at Шаблон:Bts and Шаблон:Bts, with no stop between them.[6] The Back of the Hill apartment complex, located just north of Heath Street, was built in 1980 and opened in 1981.[7][8][9] The E Branch was closed for track work from June 21, 1980, to June 26, 1982; trains began stopping at Back of the Hill then or after.[5]
Back of the Hill is the least-used stop on the MBTA subway system, averaging only 35 riders per day by a 2011 count. It was one of only four stops to average fewer than 100 riders per day.[10][note 1] In 2021, the MBTA indicated plans to modify the Heath Street–Brigham Circle section of the E branch with accessible platforms to replace the existing non-accessible stopping locations.[11] The new platforms are planned to be long enough to accommodate two Шаблон:Convert Type 10 vehicles. Design work began in July 2023 and is expected to reach 15% completion in May 2024.[12] Шаблон:Clear left
