Bronxville station is acommuter rail stop on theMetro-North Railroad'sHarlem Line, located in the village ofBronxville, New York, inWestchester County.
TheNew York and Harlem Railroad laid tracks through Bronxville during the mid-1840s, and evidence of a station in Bronxville can be found at least as far back as 1858.[2] A second station was built in 1893 by theNew York Central and Hudson River Railroad, replacing a previous station which was also the home of Lancaster Underhill, a descendant of John Underhill, the man responsible for creating "Underhill's Crossing".[3]
The third and current Bronxville Station was built in 1916 by theNew York Central Railroad,[4] in theSpanish-Mission Revival architecture designed to match that of the nearby Gramatan Hotel. As with the rest of the Harlem Line, the merger of New York Central withPennsylvania Railroad in 1968 transformed it into aPenn Central station, and then its service was gradually merged with theMetropolitan Transportation Authority, and officially became part of Metro-North in 1983. In the Spring of 1989, the platforms were reconstructed, along with those ofFleetwood,Tuckahoe, andCrestwood stations.[5] As of August 2006, daily commuter ridership was 3,109 and there are 331 parking spots.[6]
The station has two high-levelside platforms, each 12 cars long.[7]: 10
