167 St (B D)

Highbridge, Concourse, Bronx

Named after East 167th Street, numbered in the Manhattan system.

The West Bronx uses the same street numbering system as Manhattan, so 167th Street carries on the Manhattan count. Here it is East 167th Street, because the Concourse lies east of Jerome Avenue, the Bronx dividing line directly north of Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue. At this station it passes through a tunnel beneath the Grand Concourse, the boulevard modelled on the Champs-Élysées.
