Botanical Garden (Metro-North station)

The Botanical Garden (also known as Botanical Garden – East 200th Street) Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of the Bedford Park section of the Bronx via the Harlem Line. It is from Grand Central Terminal and is located just north of the intersection of Doctor Theodore Kazimiroff Boulevard (Southern Boulevard) and Bedford Park Boulevard (East 200th Street) adjacent to the site of the New York Botanical Garden. Service at Botanical Garden is hourly. This station is located in the Zone 2 Metro-North fare zone.
==History==
Prior to the establishment of the station, Botanical Gardens Station was the former site of Bedford Park Station, a railroad station that connected to a one-mile spur leading west to the Jerome Park Racetrack, which contained its own station of the same name.〔(Jerome Park Railroad; 1880 to 1906 )〕 The racetrack was closed on October 4, 1894 to make way for the installation of the Jerome Park Reservoir, and the spur was used for construction of the reservoir until 1906.
Like the site for which it was named, Botanical Garden station originates back to the 1890s,〔(Tuesday Tour of the Harlem Line - Botanical Garden )〕〔(Postcard view of Botanical Garden station (I Ride the Harlem Line) )〕 although it originally had structures on both sides of the tracks. The structure that serves the gardens itself on the north side of the tracks still exists, while the old station house on the southbound platforms was torn down.〔(Existing Railroad Station in The Bronx, New York )〕
From 1920 to 1973, there was also a connection to the 200th Street Station along the IRT Third Avenue Line over the intersection of Webster Avenue and Bedford Park Boulevard just southwest of the station.
As with many NYCRR stations in the Bronx, the station became a Penn Central station once the NYC & Pennsylvania Railroads merged in 1968. Penn Central's continuous financial despair throughout the 1970s forced them to turn over their commuter service to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Sometime between 1975 and 1981, MTA demolished the southbound station house and replaced it with aluminum and Plexiglas bus shelters. The station and the railroad were turned over to Conrail in 1976, and eventually became part of the MTA's Metro-North Railroad in 1983.
