Manhasset is astation on theLong Island Rail Road'sPort Washington Branch inManhasset,New York. It is located atPlandome Road and Maple Place, offPark Avenue – five blocks north ofNorthern Boulevard (NY 25A). It is 17.2 miles (27.7 km) fromPenn Station inMidtown Manhattan.
Manhasset station was built by theGreat Neck and Port Washington Railroad in 1899, the year after theManhasset Viaduct was completed.[4][5][6] It was the penultimate station along the branch untilPlandome station was built to the northeast in 1909.[4][5]
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 asRiverhead,Bay Shore,Northport, andMineola – was erected.[4][5]
Ahigh-level platform was installed at the station in the 1970s, allowing the LIRR's newM1electric multiple unit railcars – which required high-level platforms – to serve the station.[4]
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.[4]
The station has one 10-car longside platform on the south side of the track.
