125th Street Station · Opened 9/10/1932

An express station with two island platforms and four tracks. Tile band is marine green with a black border, but there is no name tablet. The I-beams are painted a slightly different green. The floor tile is an unglazed reddish-brown brick. The original white wall tile has been replaced by buff vertical brick, which can also be seen at the ends of the platforms. The station has a full mezzanine with crossover and features photos of the old El at 125th St. as well as other pictures of the area. There are closed center stairs to the street. The south half of the mezzanine can be closed off and is dimmer than the north half. The north half of the mezzanine has two sets of closed stairs to each platform. Evidence of at least two removed sets of stairways can be seen at the south end of the platforms.
