Mosholu Parkway is an elevated station on the IRT Jerome Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Located at the intersection of Mosholu Parkway and Jerome Avenue in the Bronx, it is served by the 4 train at all times.

There are two mosaics on each platform, and an abandoned southern exit to street marked "closed for repairs." The walls are low concrete with an upper windscreen. An old-style sign to Montefiore Hospital still exists. The mezzanine is brick.

The station has 3 tracks with 2 side platforms. The middle track, which starts just north of the station, is generally not used in revenue service.

Until November 12, 2007, all Manhattan-bound trains will bypass this station due to renovation.
