The 161st Street / Yankee Stadium Station Complex The 161st Street Station Complex is one of the most heavily used in the NYC Transit Systems. The station includes an elevated IRT line, the IND subway below ground and a transfer building through which thirteen thousand people per day move between lines. It is also the station stop for the famed Yankee Stadium. The di Domenico + Partners design calls for the complete station rehabilitation according to design guidelines established by New York City Transit. The design features the incorporation of five elevators to provide complete accessibility throughout the station complex. The elevator towers are glazed to provide for maximum light into the station complex, to heighten the perception of security and to establish a bright and shining landmark for the community. Two new large skylights will be introduced to permit light and air into the below ground station mezzanine. The project was implemented in three phases over the course of four years. A detailed construction phasing program developed by di Domenico + Partners and the NYC Transit allowed for the complete maintenance of service for the twenty-four thousand daily customers that used the facility throughout the construction period.
