A depot building was constructed in 1883 near Lake Lily (approximately 1 mi (1.6 km) south of the modern station), but the structure was torn down in 1969 following tornado damage.

[7] In 2007, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Maitland City Council selected a station site in place of a local lumberyard, Parker Lumber.

This was the only location in city limits which met FDOT's design guidelines, which required 1,000 ft (300 m) of straight track for station platforms.

In 2015, the City of Maitland constructed a pedestrian boardwalk to Greenwood Gardens, a neighborhood adjacent to the station, in an effort to help boost ridership.

[13] In late 2014, following developmental delays and funding issues with FlexBus, Lynx opted to establish a traditional shuttle between the station and Maitland Center, which traveled between the two locations six times per day.
