shopping mall
. The station was renovated in the 1990s.
History
[
edit
]
Construction and opening
[
edit
]
The
Queens Boulevard Line
was one of the first built by the city-owned
Independent Subway System
(IND), and was planned to stretch between the
IND Eighth Avenue Line
in Manhattan and 178th Street and Hillside Avenue in Jamaica, Queens, with a stop at Woodhaven Boulevard.
[3]
[4]
The line was first proposed in 1925.
[5]
Construction of the line was approved by the
New York City Board of Estimate
on October 4, 1928.
[6]
The line was constructed using the
cut-and-cover
tunneling method, and to allow pedestrians to cross, temporary bridges were built over the trenches.
[7]
The first section of the line opened on August 19, 1933 from the connection to the Eighth Avenue Line at
50th Street
to
Roosevelt Avenue
in
Jackson Heights
.
[8]
Later that year, a $23 million loan was approved to finance the remainder of the line, along with other IND lines.
[9]
The remainder of the line was built by the
Public Works Administration
.
[10]
[11]
In 1934 and 1935, construction of the extension to Jamaica was suspended for 15 months and was halted by strikes.
[12]
Construction was further delayed due to a strike in 1935, instigated by electricians opposing wages paid by the
General Railway Signal Company
.
[13]
By August 1935, work had resumed on the Woodhaven Boulevard station and three other stations on the Queens Boulevard Line.
[14]
During the station's construction, the main road of Queens Boulevard was depressed into underpasses at the intersections with Woodhaven Boulevard and Horace Harding Boulevard (also known as Nassau Boulevard). The easternmost underpass now carries Queens Boulevard below the
Long Island Expressway
(LIE), which replaced Horace Harding Boulevard.
[15]
In August 1936, tracks were installed all the way to 178th Street, and the stations to Union Turnpike were completed.
[12]
On December 31, 1936, the IND Queens Boulevard Line was extended by eight stops, and 3.5 miles (5.6 km), from its previous terminus at Roosevelt Avenue to Union Turnpike.
[16]
[17]
[18]
As a result of the extension, areas in Elmhurst were accessible by subway.
[19]
The E train, which initially served all stops on the new extension, began making express stops in April 1937,
[20]
and local GG trains began serving the extension at the time.
[21]
Later years
[
edit
]
The station was originally named "Woodhaven Blvd?Slattery Plaza", after Slattery Plaza, the area where four main Queens thoroughfares (Eliot Avenue and Horace Harding, Woodhaven, and Queens Boulevards) intersected.
[22]
[23]
The plaza, which no longer exists, featured several "mom-and-pop"
small businesses
.
[23]
The plaza and subway station were named after Colonel John R. Slattery,
[22]
former
New York City Board of Transportation
chief engineer who died in 1932 while supervising the construction of the
IND Eighth Avenue Line
.
[24]
The construction of the LIE along the Horace Harding corridor in the 1950s resulted in the demolition of Slattery Plaza, although the name tablets retained the original name even after the plaza's demolition.
[22]
[23]
[25]
Renovation
[
edit
]
Queens Center Mall
first opened in 1973,
[26]
but the name convention on subway maps was not in use until the mid-to-late 1980s.
[a]
The station became dilapidated by the 1980s due to lack of maintenance over the years, and in 1981, the
Metropolitan Transportation Authority
(MTA) listed the station among the 69 most deteriorated stations in the subway system.
[27]
The station was also heavily used, serving 15,000 passengers per weekday by 1993.
[28]
In April 1991, the entrance at the north side of Queens Boulevard near an overpass of the Long Island Expressway was closed, along with fifteen other entrances across the subway system to reduce crime. In June 1992, subway riders held a protest rally, demanding the reopening of the entrance. In 1993, the Woodhaven Boulevard station began a three-year renovation project as part of a general refurbishment of seventy New York City Subway stations.
[29]
The refurbishment added a new token booth, new signage and platform edge strips, replaced platform tiles, staircase components, and lighting, and restored the station's restrooms. Four new turnstiles were added at the east end of the station, a new east-end staircase was added to the north side of Queens Boulevard and the west-end staircase was widened. A new public address system was added to the station, the west end token booth was moved closer to the turnstiles and turnstiles equipped for the Automated Fare Collection system were installed. The project was expected to be completed in September 1996.
[28]
[30]
After the renovation, the station retained the now out-of-date "Woodhaven Blvd?Slattery Plaza" name tablets.
[25]
In 2019, as part of an initiative to increase the
accessibility of the New York City Subway system
, the MTA announced that it would install elevators at the Woodhaven Boulevard station as part of the MTA's 2020?2024 Capital Program.
[31]
In November 2022, the MTA announced that it would award a $965 million contract for the installation of 21 elevators across eight stations,
[32]
including Woodhaven Boulevard.
[33]
[34]
: 81
A joint venture of ASTM and Halmar International would construct the elevators under a public-private partnership. Currently, the station is currently undergoing renovations to install elevators at the station.
[33]

Station layout
[
edit
]
There are four tracks and two
side platforms
;
[35]
the two center express tracks are used by the
E
and
F
trains at all times except late nights.
[36]
The E and F trains serve the station at night,
[37]
[38]
the
M
train serves the station on weekdays during the day,
[39]
and the
R
train serves the station at all times except late nights.
[40]
The station is between
Grand Avenue?Newtown
to the west and
63rd Drive?Rego Park
to the east.
[41]
At either end of both platforms are
bellmouth provisions
to allow conversion into an express station. The tunnel wall extends outward to allow space for the two side platforms to be replaced with
island platforms
, and for the local tracks to be relocated outside the island platforms.
[42]
The station would have accommodated
a major system expansion
, with additional service coming from the
Roosevelt Avenue Terminal
station and the
former LIRR Rockaway Line
.
[43]
[44]
Requests to convert the station were also put forward by the local community shortly after the station opened, due to heavy bus traffic feeding into the station and overcrowding at the
Roosevelt Avenue
express stop.
[45]
[46]
The name tablets on this station still retain the original name of Woodhaven Boulevard?Slattery Plaza.
[25]
The
tilework
in this station consists of blue tile bands with a black border,
[47]
similar to the tilework found at the
Elmhurst Avenue
stop, two stations west.
[48]
The tile band was part of a color-coded
tile system
used throughout the IND.
[49]
The tile colors were designed to facilitate navigation for travelers going away from
Lower Manhattan
. As such, the blue tiles used at the Woodhaven Boulevard station are also used at
Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Avenue
, the next express station to the west, while a different tile color is used at
Forest Hills?71st Avenue
, the next express station to the east. Blue tiles are similarly used at the other local stations between Roosevelt Avenue and 71st Avenue.
[50]
[51]
Near the edges of the platforms, I-beam
piers
are located every 15 feet (4.6 m) and support
girders
above the platforms. The roof girders are also connected to columns in the walls adjoining each platform.
[52]
: 3
The station's full-length
mezzanine
allows crossover from any of the station's four staircases from each platform, with a total of eight staircases from the mezzanine to platform level. There is no direct indoor access to the Queens Center Mall's entrance at the northwest corner of Queens Boulevard and 59th Avenue from the mezzanine.
[53]
The 1996 artwork here is called
In Memory of The Lost Battalion
by Pablo Tauler. It uses nine support beams in the station's mezzanine wrapped in different materials? including glass, iron, and
stainless steel
?to honor the soldiers who served in the
77th Infantry Division
during
World War I
.
[54]
[55]
The tunnel is covered by a U-shaped trough that contains utility pipes and wires. The outer walls of this trough are composed of columns, spaced approximately every 5 feet (1.5 m) with concrete infill between them. There is a 1-inch (25 mm) gap between the tunnel wall and the platform wall, which is made of 4-inch (100 mm)-thick brick covered over by a tiled finish. The columns between the tracks are also spaced every 5 feet (1.5 m), with no infill.
[52]
: 3
Exits
[
edit
]
The full-time side at the west end of the mezzanine has three street stairs. One leads to the northeast corner of
Queens Boulevard
and 59th Avenue, the closest to the mall. The other two staircases are through a long passageway to both southern corners of Queens Boulevard and Woodhaven Boulevard, acting as a
pedestrian underpass
outside of
fare control
.
[53]
[56]
These staircases date back to the station's original opening.
[15]
There is an entrance to the southeast corner of Woodhaven and Queens Boulevards that, as a result of the construction of the
Long Island Expressway
in the mid-1950s, leads only to a sidewalk isolated between two entrance ramps to the expressway, requiring passengers to cross traffic signals on all sides.
[56]
[57]
The part-time portion at the former Horace Harding Boulevard on the east end has a closed and removed booth and one street stair to the north side of Queens Boulevard at 92nd Street. This entrance abuts two expressway ramps and leads to the former Horace Harding Boulevard, now replaced by the LIE exit ramp.
[53]
[56]
[57]
This exit still has a directional mosaic pointing to it, listing the exit as 60th Avenue and 92nd Street on the north side of Queens Boulevard.
[57]
The construction of the Long Island Expressway removed this intersection.
[53]
[56]
This is also a staircase that dates to the station's opening.
[15]
There is a closed exit to the south side of Queens Boulevard underneath the Long Island Expressway, between the ramp to the eastbound expressway and Eliot Avenue. It is covered with a trapdoor.
[57]
[58]
Bus service
[
edit
]
The station and the nearby
Queens Center Mall
are served by nine local
MTA Regional Bus Operations
routes and two express bus routes. Three of the four
Woodhaven Boulevard
bus lines (Q11, Q21, Q52
SBS
) terminate at the station, with the Q53 SBS bus continuing westward towards the
