Also, it&#8217;s nice and quiet, which is to be expected being deep in a residential neighborhood in Brookline.<br><br>The bad: It&#8217;s not accessible! It also doesn&#8217;t help the nearest stations (all on the C branch) aren&#8217;t accessible either! Also, it is annoying how D branch bustitutions bypass this station entirely, though to be fair the local streets are absolutely TINY.<br><br>Nearby points of interest: Eh, not much. There&#8217;s a playground at least.<br><br>Transit connections:<br>Green Line (D)<br><br>Overall, it&#8217;s alright, however the biggest issue I got with this station is the lack of accessibility. In general, I just don&#8217;t have a lot to note about it.<br><br>Rating: 6\/10<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bustitutions? What are those?
