HEMPSTEAD STATION
|
HEMPSTEAD C.R.R. depot built:
Oct-Dec/1872 at Fulton Avenue and became LIRR’s Hempstead Station and
terminus in 1878. Remodeled: 7/1881. Razed: 1913.
2nd Depot opened: 2/1913. Temporary station in service: 1,265’ west of
former location: 12/30/41 while tracks were cut back to Columbia Street. 2nd
Depot moved to Columbia Street.: Upon completion of track work and placed in
service: by 6/17/1943 (photo provenance with official valuation photo and
date) Gutted by fire: 12/31/62 and remodeled. Razed: 1998
3rd Depot built: 1999-2000
|

The brand new depot at Fulton Ave., Hempstead shortly after it opened
in February, 1913. This depot replaced the all-brick depot built by
Alexander T. Stewart in 1872 for his Central Railroad of Long Island and
used by the LIRR upon their acquisition of his railroad in 1878, as it was a
better depot than the LIRR's own adjacent depot. View is northwest
(railroad west). Note "Smith's Livery " at the left and the
hitching post in the center foreground! This image had to be
photographed shortly after opening as there are NO handrails yet installed
at the two concrete stair locations and no shrubbery in place. It
appears that the trees in the right background have leaves on them so this
could be a May/June image. The new terminal building would have been
opened for only 3-4 months at the time this may have been taken. (Dave
Keller data and archive)

Hempstead Station valuation photo view NW 6/17/1943
The image, above, shows the
Hempstead station building after it was moved back to Columbia Street, from
Fulton Ave. The notation on the back of the image states that it's a
"completion shot" but although it was photographed in June, 1943,
it does not mean that the relocated depot was opened then. It could
have been opened a month earlier and the photographer only told to
photograph it in June. Research: Dave Keller
Hard to imagine that the image from 1960
(below) shows the SAME depot with the same Spanish tiles (47 years in
place!) yet after the major fire of 1962 the roof style was changed by
eliminating the stylish upward curve of the eaves at the ends, ugly rooftop
dormers were added which were NOT in keeping with the architectural style
AND the Spanish tiles were replaced by hum-drum, 3-tab, asphalt roof
shingles.

shore to Bridgehampton and NE up to Sag Harbor in 1870. In 1881, the
LIRR extended the former SSRR from Patchogue to connect with this branch at
the new junction at Eastport, and the Moriches station on the old Sag Harbor
branch a short distance west of this junction was lifted off its foundation
and moved east and renamed Eastport. The line was extended from
Bridgehampton further east to Montauk in 1895. Research: Dave Keller

LIRR Rules and Rates of Pay -Shinnecock Hills 1/01/1924
There was a full-time agent assigned to the station as
of Jan. 1, 1924. Had he been seasonal, the letter "S" would appear next to
his position, as is indicated in this Rates of Pay book for "Agent no. 2" at Seaside
station. The agent at Shinnecock Hills was paid $ .52 per hour. There was no ticket clerk
helper, as business most probably didn't warrant it. In addition, the agent
was paid an extra 8-1/4 cents per hour to handle the block. Also note that
RENT was included as part of the "perks." Therefore, that portion of the
depot on the east side of the ticket bay and turret, including the extension
at the rear (see view at right) would have been the agent's living
quarters. (Dave Keller data) |

Once
high-level platforms were installed at the station to handle the new
push-pull service, the overhanging eaves trackside had to be cut back to
allow for passenger clearance overhead, totally ruining the architectural
lines of the depot building.
When it was
decided to eliminate the grade crossing in
Smithtown
and construct a new depot building, the old, original structure was moved
south of the location to
Lawrence street
to become a private residence. Info: Dave Keller

When I worked there as a Vacation Relief Agent, we only used the window on the right, but Dick Makse says that in the 1960's that the left window was used on Sundays for Parlor car tickets only. Also on Sundays there was a block operator to report trains to the Dispatcher and issue A and K
cards. The operator was there when I worked there.
