Annadale is a Staten Island Railway station in the neighborhood of Annadale, Staten Island, New York.

History

Annadale opened on May 14, 1860, when the Staten Island Railway was extended from Eltingville, one stop to the north.[1] The original station building was replaced in 1910, moved a short distance, expanded into a residence, and finally moved to Historic Richmond Town in 1975.[3]

The 1910 station was rebuilt in 1939 as part of a grade crossing elimination project.[4] The station was rehabilited in the 1990s as part of an SIR-wide upgrade/platform lengthening project.

Exits

The north end has a street-level brick stationhouse at Annadale Road,[6][7] while the south end, next to Belfield Avenue, has an overpass and stairs to each platform.[6][8] On the northbound side, there is a second set of stairs that leads to an adjacent parking lot near Tenafly Avenue, operated by the MTA as a park and ride facility.[9]
