161st Street (Bronx)
161st Street is a short, major thoroughfare in the southern portion of the Bronx. The road is long and is a much used access to Yankee Stadium on its north side.〔(NY Yankees official site ), (Ballpark directions )〕 The 20th-century Yankee Stadium was on the south side of the street. The road begins in the west at an intersection with Jerome Avenue, a major thoroughfare in the Bronx, and Woodycrest Avenue, a one-way street in the Bronx. The road is one of the widest in the Bronx, until the Sheridan Avenue intersection, where the divided highway merges. East 161st Street ends at Elton Avenue. However, the road continues eastward in parts, ending at Hewitt Place, as a short connector.
