Greenwich station is a commuter rail station on the Metro-North Railroad New Haven Line located in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The station has two high-level side platforms, each 10 cars long, serving the outer tracks of the four-track Northeast Corridor.[4]
Unlike most stations on the line, Greenwich station is owned and maintained by multiple agencies and organizations. The State of Connecticut owns the station's platforms, Metro-North maintains the platforms, but the station building and parking facilities are privately owned.[1]
The Penn Central Transportation Company opened the current station building on March 5, 1970, replacing an older structure, built by the New York & New Haven Railroad, which was demolished. As built the new building was a two-story structure with 8550square feet of space. The station was the centerpiece of Greenwich Plaza, a new mixed-use retail development.[5] [6] A proposed $45 million project, of which plans were shown in July 2019, would replace that building with a new station on the south side of the tracks.[7]
