Шаблон:About Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox NYCS
The Beverley Road station is a local station on the BMT Brighton Line of the New York City Subway. It is located over a private right-of-way at Beverly Road between Marlborough Road/East 15th Street and East 16th Street in the neighborhood of Flatbush, Brooklyn. The station is served by the Q train at all times.[1]
History
The original station at this location was opened around 1900 as a two-track street-level side platform station running south from a grade crossing at Beverley Road. The station was established to serve the then-new upscale planned community of Prospect Park South. The current station house and below-grade platforms were completed at the end of 1907, and have been on the National Register of Historic Places since 2004.[2]
During the 1964–1965 fiscal year, the platforms at Beverley Road, along with those at six other stations on the Brighton Line, were lengthened to Шаблон:Convert to accommodate a ten-car train of Шаблон:Convert-long IND cars, or a nine-car train of Шаблон:Convert-long BMT cars.[3]
In April 1993, the New York State Legislature agreed to give the MTA $9.6 billion for capital improvements. Some of the funds would be used to renovate nearly one hundred New York City Subway stations,[4][5] including Beverley Road.[6]
Station layout
Шаблон:NYCS Platform Layout BMT Brighton Line/open-cut
This open-cut station has four tracks and two side platforms, typical for a New York City Subway local station.[7]
This station is spelled with three "e"s, unlike its Nostrand Avenue IRT counterpart, which is spelled with two, reflecting the original spelling of the street's name. The 1907 station-house was the focus of an early 1990s in-house renovation. Sitting on the open-cut portion of the Brighton Line, another gentle curve to the right is at the far north end along with clearly visible platform extensions, allowing passengers to watch trains between Church Avenue and Cortelyou Road.Шаблон:Cn The Beverley Road and Cortelyou Road stations are the closest operational stations in the New York City Subway system, being Шаблон:Cvt apart.[8]
Exit
The station's sole entrance is through a station house at Beverly Road between Marlborough Road and East 16th Streets.[9] The station-house features artwork called Garden Stops by Patsy Norvell, which has etched images of leaves on the glass windows inside fare control facing the south. The artwork can be seen from both inside the mezzanine and while standing on either platform to the south; this artwork is also visible at the neighboring Cortelyou Road station.[10] Colors at this station are green and beige.
