Geocache Description:


The Grasmere station is a Staten Island Railwaystation in the neighborhood of Grasmere, Staten Island, New York. It is located at Clove Road on the Main Line.

 

The station opened in 1886 for a cost of $555.35.

 

Rehabilitation of Grasmere station began on May 21, 2012. The construction included demolition and rebuilding of the station platform and station house. A temporary platform and entrance were built north of the main station. Construction was finished in April 2014

The platform is located in an open cut and has glass block and concrete windscreens attached to the canopy supports.

The Grasmere crossover, consisting of two manual switches, was located just past the Fingerboard Road overpass north of the station, but has since been removed. North of this station, the line merges with the abandoned South Beach Branch. The branch was closed on March 31, 1953 due to poor ridership and the SIRT's financial issues.
