ALEXANDRA PALACE (Alexandra Park)
3rd February 2006

Terminus of the GNR branch from Highgate, opened in 1873. The surviving building dates from the early 1900s when the station was rebuilt. For a short period the station was named Alexandra Park. During the 1930s London Transport planned to incorporate the branch into an extended Northern Line but the war killed off the scheme. The station closed in 1954 and after years of disuse the building is now a community centre.
