Lenox Terminal, uncovered

Posted by gbs on Sun Jan 18 22:05:54 2026


After reading the recent post about cars on the Third Av El, which mentioned the World's Fair cars, I searched photos of those cars and found this picture, which is even more interesting because of its location: Lenox Terminal in 1949, before being covered over.

At first I couldn't identify the yard. Then I read the description and realized why it looked so unfamiliar. I'm guessing that most of us here have never seen that yard looking like that, because before it was covered over, it wasn't open to the public since the station wasn't there.




The apartment building in the background is still there, now across the street from the 148-Lenox station.




This is from 1970, about two years after the station opened:
