A project to replace five subway elevators at the 161st Street-Yankee Stadium station started in November 2024. The work involves replacing old elevators to improve accessibility at the station. Three new elevators went into service by April 2026, but two elevators servicing the No. 4 line platforms remain out of service and are expected to open in the coming weeks due to structural challenges.
