History
Annadale opened on May 14, 1860, when the Staten Island Railway was extended from Eltingville, one stop to the north.[1] The original station building was replaced in 1910, moved a short distance, expanded into a residence, and finally moved to Historic Richmond Town in 1975.[3]
The 1910 station was rebuilt in 1939 as part of a grade crossing elimination project.[4] The station was rehabilitated in the 1990s as part of an SIR-wide upgrade/platform lengthening project.
Station layout
The station is located in a shallow open cut at Annadale Road and Sneden Avenue on the main line. It has two side platforms and light orange color walls and tiles.[5]
