'''Block Park East''' is an express station on Lines C/CX and Lines D/DX of the Togcity and Block Nation Subway. It is located at the eastern end of Block Park, and has two levels. Lines C and CX stop on the upper level, while Lines D and DX stop on the lower level. There are two overpasses, one at the northern end of the upper level, and one at the eastern end of the lower level. The two overpasses connect and lead to a staircase up to the intersection of Main Street and Block Park Road.

==Platform and track configuration==
On the upper level, Lines C and CX have four tracks and two island platforms, in a standard express station layout. On the lower level, Line D has two tracks and two side platforms. The two levels are not directly on top of each other, instead the lower level is some meters west of the upper level.

==History==
Block Park East station was first built when Lines C and CX were extended north from [[Center Street East]] and [[Grand Central]] respectively. It was a terminal for a while until Line C was extended to [[Northern Summit]] and Line CX was extended to [[North Main Street]]. Later, Lines D/DX's level was built, with two tracks and two side platforms, and a connection to Lines C and CX.
