Avenue H Station, BMT Brighton Line
Post
Avenue H Station House DATE: 1906 STYLE: Colonial Revival, Queen Anne The Avenue H station on the BMT line, originally the Brooklyn, Flatbush & Coney Island Railroad, built in 1906, is the city’s only shingled wooden cottage turned transit station house. Often compared to a country train stop, it originally served as a real estate sales office for developer Thomas Benton Ackerson to sell property in the adjacent neighborhood of Fiske Terrace, an early twentieth-century example of planned suburban development. The structure, with a hipped and flared roof and wraparound porch evokes in miniature the area’s Colonial Revival and Queen Anne houses.
