Manhasset is a station on the Long Island Rail Road's Port Washington Branch in Manhasset, New York. It is located at Plandome Road and Maple Place, off Park Avenue – five blocks north of Northern Boulevard (NY 25A). It is 17.2 miles (27.7 km) from Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan.
History
Manhasset station was built by the Great Neck and Port Washington Railroad in 1899, the year after the Manhasset Viaduct was completed.[1][2][3] It was the penultimate station along the branch until Plandome station was built to the northeast in 1909.[1][2]
Though a smaller wooden structure was originally built in 1899, the station was rebuilt in 1924, at which time the current station house – constructed in the Dutch-colonial style typical of stations such as Riverhead, Bay Shore, Northport, and Mineola – was erected.[1][2]
A high-level platform was installed at the station in the 1970s, allowing the LIRR's new M1 electric multiple unit railcars – which required high-level platforms – to serve the station.[1]
The station was renovated between 1999 and 2001, with the addition of more canopies and staircases – as well as a restoration of the station house.[1]
Station layout
The station has one 10-car long side platform on the south side of the track.
