Kew Gardens - Union Turnpike (E, F)

Unless I’m hugely missing something, there are no actual gardens off this stop. It’s more just … cars.

Google maps makes it look like this station is next to some big green space … but it’s actually just a train terminal that’s closed off to visitors. In fact, there isn’t really much greenery that’s easily accessible off this stop, save for the patches of grass next to the freeway.

But, look, if you really want some nature, walk about 25 minutes to the Pat Dolan Trailhead, and basically follow these steps outlined here in reverse.

Otherwise … I’d consider this a skippable stop.

The view right outside the station.

Well, there is some greenery outside the Department of Transportation office, but the views are of the highway.
