Dukes Boulevard Station is an inactive Liberty City Subway station located on Dukes Boulevard in East Island City, Dukes, that appears in Grand Theft Auto IV, Episodes from Liberty City and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.
Description[]
The station is located along an Station branch line that splits from the 3/8 Broker Line north of Huntington Street station. The station is the only terminus on the network. The station leaves the main line at a level cross T-junction, and it would be possible for a train to re-enter service towards either Francis International Airport or Huntington Street. Likewise a train coming from FIA (towards Huntington Upper Level) or vice-versa could terminate here.
In Grand Theft Auto IV, according to signs posted on the street level gates of the station, the Dukes Boulevard station is closed as it is undergoing "works maintenance" and passengers must use another station. The closure is reinforced with the presence of fences, barricades, scaffolding and maintenance equipment on the platforms and tracks. Because of this, no trains serve the station. These signs and equipment only appear after the player completes the mission Clean Getaway, as the subway train Niko takes does stop at the station. The train is not seen arriving at the station, as the cutscene ends with the train Niko is in arriving Schottler Station. With the exception of a police barrier on the opposite platform entrance, no fences, maintenance signs or construction equipment are seen on the tracks, which implies that the station was still operational at that point. During the mission, Vlad refers to the station as the EIC Station.
In Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City, the station is still closed but there are no signs explaining why, and no construction equipment can be found on the tracks.
In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, the station appears to be open now as trains can be seen passing above, and construction equipment on the tracks is absent. However though the player still cannot take the subway.
A busker can be seen outside the station playing a saxophone.
