Washington Street station (Newark Light Rail)

The station is located at the intersection of Raymond Boulevard and Washington Street with a second entrance at University Avenue, both in Downtown Newark.

The station serves the western edge of downtown and the University Heights neighborhood.

In 1910, the Public Service Corporation planned to build two subway lines meeting at Broad Street (now Military Park).

In 1929 construction began on the east-west subway line (#7), now the Newark Light Rail, which was built in the old Morris Canal bed with Raymond Boulevard built over it, and service started on the line on May 26, 1935.
