Corona station (LIRR)

[1] It was then renamed West Flushing, once the West Flushing station at 108th Street closed, and possibly when the race track was closed in 1869,[2] and later renamed Corona around June 1872 when the Post Office was opened under the name of Corona.

The former Corona Park depot from the White Line, abandoned four years earlier, was moved to the site as a replacement around 1890 and was itself razed around September 1894.

[1] The fourth depot was built in September 1894 and was razed in 1930 due to a grade crossing elimination project.

A temporary station was put in service to the south of the former location on May 8, 1930.

Its gate was located at what is now 37th Avenue and 103rd Street in Corona, about a mile west-southwest of the eventual sites of Shea Stadium and Citi Field.
