Fleetwood Railroad Station, Broad Street at MacQuesten Parkway, Fleetwood, Westchester County, NY

description

Summary

Significance: The station of the former New York Central and Hudson River Railroad's Harlem Branch is significant as one of the surviving stations erected during the period in the first decades of the 20th century when southern Westchester County was developing into a populous suburb of New York City. It was the presence of railroad lines from New York City's Grand Central Terminal, with stops at such communities as Fleetwood that brought development to the area. The Fleetwood station is a very simple example of the Harlem line's early 20th century suburban train stations.
