MONDAWMIN (METRO SUBWAY STATION)

(Redirected from Mondawmin Metro Subway Station)

'Mondawmin' is a rapid transit station on the Metro Subway in Mondawmin, Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It is located under the intersection of Reisterstown Road and Liberty Heights Avenue, adjacent to the Mondawmin Mall. The station is the northernmost underground station on the line, and a major transfer point to bus routes.
The station's location next to Mondawmin Mall, Baltimore's oldest mall, has led its owners to plan an expansion.^[1]
On the surface, a bus loop connects to Reisterstown Road and Liberty Heights Avenue. This loop and the adjacent streets are used by a number of bus routes, many of which terminate in it:

★ Route 1 via Greenspring Avenue to Sinai Hospital and via Fulton Avenue and other streets through downtown to Fort McHenry

★ Route 5 via Druid Hill Avenue/McCulloh Street and other streets through downtown to Cedonia

★ Route 7 via Pennsylvania Avenue and other streets through downtown to Canton

★ Route 16 to Brooklyn

★ Route 22 to Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center

★ Route 51 to Patapsco

★ Route 97 (Mondawmin Shuttle) to local places near the station

★ Route M-1 via Liberty Heights Avenue to Rolling Road

★ Route M-2 via Reisterstown Road to Old Court Metro Subway Station

★ Route M-3 via Park Heights Avenue to Milford Mill Metro Subway Station
Several routes were cut back to Mondawmin on June 18, 1984, about seven months after the station opened, and Routes M-1, M-2, and M-3 were formed at that time to replace the portions of those routes beyond Mondawmin. Specifically, Route M-1 was split from Route 28 (now Route 5 near Mondawmin), Route M-2 was split from Route 7, and Route M-3 was split from Route 5.
