Glendale station (LIRR)

Glendale was a Long Island Rail Road station along the Lower Montauk Branch, located in Glendale, Queens at Edsall Avenue and 73rd Street, near Central Avenue, at the All Faiths Monuments factory for the All Faiths Cemetery.

[1] In recent years, proposals to bring back passenger service along the Lower Montauk Branch have been suggested.

[4] In January 1927, due to decreasing ridership, the LIRR razed the station, and on September 27, 1927, the name was moved to a new station at Metropolitan Avenue on the Rockaway Beach Branch.

[5] The name had lasted only for slightly more than a month until it was changed to Parkside Station on October 23, 1927,[6] and Glendale was returned to the Montauk Branch as a wooden sheltered shed along the westbound tracks by 1928.

The wooden shed was replaced by corrugated iron during World War II.
