It’s busy, isn’t it? Of course, it’s an important interchange between three different Underground lines - Jubilee, Victoria, Piccadilly! But for a station called “Green Park” I have yet to see any Green or any parks inside here! The station still has positives, the platforms are kept clean, and uhh not much else the tunnels between lines are very long but I do like the grey and blue tiling between jubilee and Piccadilly interchange.
This is an excellent station with it being in a key location, right next to areas such as Buckingham Palace and the Ritz. I'm only marking it as a 4 out of 5 due to it being such a long walk inside. It would be wonderful if they had flat escalator like they do in Waterloo when heading toward the Jubilee line. Personally, when on lines such as the Victoria line, I try and avoid getting off here as much as possible due to the long walk, It does have a great service outside of buses however. The 22 all the way back to Putney being one of them.
People...this is for the underground station, not the park . That aside, green park tube station is conveniently located, has several entrances/exists including level/ramp access to the park, has plenty of staff should you need them not that you really do and it’s clean apart from the atrocious air quality the underground is known for . It has good COVID safe guards in place and even has a machine run escalator handle cleaner which is fun. Has a good few lines/connections. Can be a bit of a labyrinth when changing between lines tho so that’s where it may be useful to have staff, but of course you won’t find them then. Used frequently by yours truly
The best thing about this station is its location. Tourists will be thrilled that one of the entrances leads you directly unto Green Park. From there it's a 5-10 minute walk to Buckingham Palace. It has 2 other entries depending on which side of Piccadilly you're heading. There's even an M&S outside and a short walk to both the Ritz and Hilton hotels. It can get pretty busy during peak times, and there may be quite a walk to get to the platforms.
This station is on the Victoria, Piccadilly, and Jubilee lines. It's an ideal location if you are visiting the Ritz, Buckingham Palace, Fortnum and Mason, Royal academy of arts, plus Green Park or St. James Park. It also has toilet facilities and wheelchair access.
One of my favourite underground stations. One of the exists lead you straight into Green Park!
While the various rival schemes were unsuccessful in obtaining parliamentary approval, the B&PCR was unsuccessful in raising the funds needed to construct its line. It was not until after the B&PCR had been taken over by Charles Yerkes's Metropolitan District Electric Traction Company that the money became available. Tunnelling began in 1902 shortly before the B&PCR was merged with the Great Northern and Strand Railway to create the Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway GNP&BR, the predecessor of the Piccadilly line. The GNP&BR opened the station on 15 December 1906 as Dover Street. As with most of the other GNP&BR stations, the station building, on the east side of Dover Street, was designed by Leslie Green. It featured the company's standard red glazed terracotta facade with wide semi-circular arches at first-floor level. Platform and passageway walls were decorated in glazed cream tiles in Green's standard arrangement with margins, patterning and station names in mid-blue. When it opened, the station to the west was Down Street. The station was provided with four Otis electric lifts paired in two 23-foot 7.0 m diameter shafts and a spiral stair in a smaller shaft. The platforms are 27.4 metres 90 ft below the level of Piccadilly. The station was busy and unsuccessful attempts to control crowds with gates at platform level were made in 1918. In the 1930s, the station was included amongst those modernised in conjunction with the northern and western extensions of the Piccadilly line. A new sub-surface ticket hall was opened on 18 September 1933 with a pair of Otis escalators provided to replace the lifts. The new ticket hall was accessed from subway entrances in Piccadilly. On the north side, an entrance was provided in Devonshire House on the corner with Stratton Street; on the south side an entrance was constructed on a piece of land taken from the park. The shelter for the southern entrance was designed by Charles Holden. The original station building, the lifts and the redundant below-ground passages were closed and the station was renamed Green Park. Part of the ground floor was used as a tea shop until the 1960s. In 1955, a third escalator was added to help deal with increased passenger numbers.
Well done gentlemen who assisted a blind lady getting tube. She rates the service highly and so do i. Bravo!
One of the biggest stations but with long tunnel . It shows the history of London. In front of the station is parking spot of Big Bus.
The station is easily accessible and offers good transfers between lines. The exit straight onto Green Park is so convenient and staff are lovely.
