Beach 67th Street (IND Rockaway Line)
Beach 67th Street, sometimes referred as Beach 67th Street – Arverne By The Sea, is a station on the IND Rockaway Line of the New York City Subway. Located at Beach 67th Street and Rockaway Freeway in Arverne, Queens, it is served by the train at all times.
==History==
The station was originally built as Arverne for the Long Island Rail Road in 1888 at Gaston Avenue, by New York lawyer and developer Remington Vernam. The station and the development were named by his wife who admired the way he signed his checks. The station had a large tower, was shaped like a Victorian hotel and had a connection to the Ocean Electric Railway.
Due to a quarrel between the LIRR and Vernam, another Arverne Station was built at Stration Avenue in 1892. From then on, it was known as Arverne – Gaston Avenue to distinguish it from the Straiton Avenue station. Arverne station was rebuilt on a new site with a simpler structure in May 1912. Like all stations along the Rockaway Beach Branch, it was closed and replaced with the elevated Gaston Avenue (LIRR station) on April 10, 1942, only to be transferred to the New York City Transit Authority on October 3, 1955 and reopened as a subway station on June 28, 1956.〔(LIRR Station History )〕
In March 2010, Queens Community Board 14, which represents Arverne, voted in favor of renaming the station from Beach 67th Street – Gaston to Beach 67th Street – Arverne By The Sea.〔("Beach 67 Street Station – Arverne By The Sea," by Nicholas Briano (The Wave; March 12, 2010) )〕 New signs with this name were installed in July 2011.
