If you include names that use a neighborhood as a subtitle, but not those that were added in the 1990s:Sheepshead Bay Brighton Beach Morris Park East 177th Street-Parkchester Cypress Hills Stillwell Avenue-Coney Island 71st-Continental Avenue-Forest Hills Main Street-Flushing 179th Street-Jamaica Jamaica Center-Parsons Boulevard Howard Beach Beach 116th Street-Rockaway Park Mott Avenue-Far Rockaway Broad Channel Beach 105th Street-Seaside Beach 90th Street-Holland Beach 36th Street-Edgemere Beach 25th Street-Wavecrest 168th Street-Washington Heights Roosevelt Island 21st Street-Queensbridge That's more than 19. I haven't included stations named after parks, institutions, squares/intersections, unless that's also the name of the surrounding neighborhood. Honorable mention goes to "Mott Haven", the original name of 138th Street-Grand Concourse. I didn't include "Woodlawn" because it's based on the former name of Bainbridge Avenue north of 205th Street "Woodlawn Road." |
