Default Question about Broad Street

Palace Gates station was indeed named after Alexandra Palace, but
was even farther from it than the present station of that name
(which was formerly called Wood Green). I don't have the exact
location, but it would appear to have been near the present-day
Imperial Road, which is off Bounds Green Road.


No, it was between Dorset Road (which is its new-ish name) and Braemar
Road:

It is now a small housing estate

There is a park/walkway over the former trackbed past the site of the
station, but the only other that actually remains are the remains of a
bridge at either side of Park Road.
