    Platform for the 4 line
    Emil C.

    I was in town to run the New Balance Bronx 10 mile race. I took the 4 train to this station. The platform for the 4 train was an elevated one. This station also serves the B and D lines. Along with the majority of my fellow race participants, this was the station that we got off at to head over to the race on the Grand Concourse. Once we exited the station, we were pretty much right at the entrance to Yankee Station. Must be convenient if you were coming here for a game.

    Signage could be better here. Sure, there are people who live here and know where they're going but more "This way to Yankee Stadium" signs would be helpful. As it was, we came up from the underground and still had to try to work out which way to turn. In and out, this was pretty easy. Considering that it's the busiest station in the borough of the Bronx and this was a game night, I was pleased. Also, the station is entirely handicapped accessible with elevators available to and from all platforms. The 4 train is above ground. The next station northbound is 167th Street towards Woodland, the next southbound is 149th Street towards Utica Avenue. Below ground, the station is served by the B and D trains with some local and some express service. [Review 15661 overall - 257 in New York - 1165 of 2021.]

    From the platform you can see the sign. Posted 01/15/21

    MTA 161 Street Yankee Stadium On Game Day this station is like Times Square on New Years Eve and Grand Central at Peak Rush Hour all rolled in one. It would be five stars except I hate the stairs. The sound of Frank Sinatra singing New York New York can be heard through the speakers. The vibes are like a carnival with people selling water, souvenirs and more. The neighborhood is full of fast food and places to drink. We had time to visit Dunkin last game we went to a game. I'm recommending you take the train to experience classic New York City just outside the doors of the most famous baseball stadium ever!

Waiting time for train intervals are approximately ten minute difference because the 1 train is local. Dingy and dirty plus elevators constantly out of order. As a life long New Yorker who travels by subway, bus and railroad this station is horrible. Rubbish strewn overflowing the very minimal receptacles and MTA employees do not remove or dispose garbage. This station gives access to Northern Manhattan's Washington Heights as I sometimes visit friends. This station is on the western edge of Manhattan in the vicinity of George Washington Bridge. The original mosaic wall tiles are charming to admire and well restored.

The Metrocard machines rarely work - today they're only accepting coins, go figure. The staff is super rude even when you're just asking simple questions, with the exception of one really nice man who works the elevators sometimes. During the summer months the whole station feels like a hell hole, you won't make it through the elevators without sweating. If you don't mind the 3-4 block walk, the A station in 181st and Fort Washington is much better.

    I been taking this train station for the past 20 years and may i say i have not seen 1 simple…read morerenovation but a paint job. This station was completed in 1906, But was opened in 1907. The total spending to extend the station rails from 207th Street and 238th Street were opened for use at the cost of $423,000. Now in 2016 That would be Millions of dollars since money change. Its always good i inform my readers with a bit of history information that i learn while reviewing these places. One of my biggest concerns about this train station is how it only has 1 booth and its on the downtown side. The uptown side has nothing, At least they can put machines to buy the metro cards. Another concern that i have is these stations should require elevators for every one a a lot of older people and people in wheelchairs have to take taxi or ride on the bus since many stations like this one do not provide a train. There is enough space for an elevator both sides have a great amount of space. This 207 street station has 3 rails the middle one is for emergency use. On the downtown side they provide a booth 2 metro card machines 2 metro card readers and 3 turn styles when you swipe the metro card to pay. The other side only has the turn styles to swipe. This happens many times i have seen it happen to many people. If you are going uptown do not go up the long stairs if your metro card is empty. You first have to cross to the other side the downtown side and pay to either renew your metro card which will cost you $1 extra dollar if you don't already have a metro card with you. These long stairs are located in both sides 4 long stairs very slipery since its all steel. So just be very careful i wish the city can focus more on making it more safe and convinient to the public to ride on trains. I found a great picture on google that i will be sharing of 207th Street station under construction in 1906, before development in the surrounding area took shape.

Northern Manhattan's 1 train that connects Manhattan and The Bronx this stations acts as a segue. Digital countdown clocks are available to display train intervals for the next train and the following train. Renovation for the 2015 era is in dire need. This station is elevated above ground.

The station is above ground and somewhat exposed to the elements. It is clean and we found it safe enough for late morning on a Friday. There is artwork in the station lobby - Birds in Flight - that was pretty. Pronounced DIKE-man (because this is, after all, New Amsterdam), the station opened on March 12, 1906. It was renovated in 2014 when the elevator was installed on the southbound platform. The station has two side platforms and two tracks. The platforms contain stairs to the station house at Dyckman Street and Nagle Avenue. While the southbound platform also has an elevator to the station house, making it ADA-accessible, the northbound platform does not, The next stop northbound is 207th Street (towards 242nd Street) and the next stop southbound is 191st Street (towards South Ferry). Not the ideal station for accessing the Met Cloisters, there was some walking and navigating. I'd recommend you take the A train to the other Dyckman Station.

It is served by the 1 and A trains all the time and the C train at all times except late nights. Transfer between the lines is inside the fare control, i.e., you do not need to leave and re-enter to pay another far. There are elevators available for the transfer. The station is reasonably clean and well lit. It's rather loud when the express trains pass through on the center tracks but there isn't much to be done about that except plug your ears. The station opened in 1948. [Review 15644 overall - 241 in New York - 1148 of 2021.]

I walk and walk, stop for a snack, sit in a park to rest, and find a place to eat lunch. By the time I get to 168th Street I may or may not walk home. The older I get the more likely a train home is better suited to my needs. I'm giving this station three stars. I don't use it to commute daily. Daily commuters may have a different opinion. The time of day I travel it's quiet and clean. I'm writing this review because of my love of this stations tile. The pastels in this subway are some of my favorite. I do enjoy visiting subway stations and posting on Yelp. I also post in case other Yelpers want to visit historic neighborhood locations. I try to give you ideas. If you enjoy Subway Stations and Tile Work be sure to check out this station. Enjoy the neighborhood while you're here. That's another review!
