New York City Transit Authority Bus Repair Depot/former New York Coliseum

Location: 1100 East 177th Street (tax address is 1104 East 177th Street), Block: 3904, Lot: 40

Status: Never landmarked or heard. Demolished in the late 1990s. There is indication in the Department of Buildings website, but the new current depot was built in 2001. The property was acquired by NYCT before the demolition.

Description from the Bronx Survey:

With its curved central gable and impressively long arcade running the width of the facade, this unusual structure exhibits characteristics indigenous to the Spanish Mission style of architecture. The building was originally constructed in Philadelphia in 1926 to house exhibits for that city’s Sesquicentennial Exposition and was re-erected in the Bronx the next year. Prior to its use as a bus repair depot, the building served as a sports arena.
