The 174th–175th Streets station is a local station on the IND Concourse Line of the New York City Subway, located at the Grand Concourse between East 174th and 175th Streets in the Bronx. It is served by the D train at all times except rush hours in the peak direction and by the B train during rush hours. History This underground station, along with the rest of the Concourse Line, opened on July 1, 1933. Initial service was provided by the C express and CC local trains. Under the 2015–2019 MTA Capital Plan, the station underwent a complete overhaul as part of the Enhanced Station Initiative, and was entirely closed for several months. Upgrades included cellular service, Wi-Fi, USB charging stations, interactive service advisories and maps. In January 2018, the NYCT and Bus Committee recommended that Citnalta-Forte receive the $125 million contract for the renovations of 167th and 174th–175th Streets on the IND Concourse Line and 145th Street on the IRT Lenox Avenue Line. However, the MTA Board temporarily deferred the vote for these packages after city representatives refused to vote to award the contracts. The contract was put back for a vote in February, where it was ultimately approved. The staircase entrance on the east side of Grand Concourse at the East 174th Street underpass closed on July 9, while the rest of the station closed for repairs on August 13. The station reopened on December 26, 2018. Station layout This underground station has three tracks and two side platforms. The center track is used by the D express train during rush hours in peak direction. Both platforms have an orange trim line with a black border and name tablets reading "174TH-175TH ST." in white sans-serif lettering on a black background and orange border. Under the trim line are small signs made of three tiles each reading "174" or "175" depending on location within the station. Grey (previously yellow) I-beam columns run along both platforms at regular intervals with alternating ones having the standard black station name plate in white lettering. The station is on a gently curving section of track, sharp enough to not be able to see the opposite end of the platform. The 2018 artwork here is called Bronx Seasons Everchanging by Roy Secord. It features large abstract mosaics on the station walls inspired by the artist's own walking meditations through the Bronx's nature at different
