Glen Cove (LIRR station)

Glen Cove is a station along the Oyster Bay Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is located between Pearsall Avenue and Norfolk Lane north of Duck Pond Road in the city of Glen Cove, New York.

Glen Cove station, (née Nassau), was built in 1895 at the behest of the "Gold Coast" millionaires such as the Pratts and J.P. Morgan who were looking for a more dignified station to disembark. This explains why this station was built roughly a mile from the Glen Street station. The picturesque station has been featured in several movies, including Sabrina, Hello Again, and several commercials. It can be found at the southwest corner of the Nassau Country Club, where maintenance crew members often enter and leave.

This station has the longest, straight waiting room bench on the LIRR - it is 35 feet long.

A little known secret is that behind the west waiting room wall there is a beautiful fireplace, which was once visible to customers in the waiting room.

No bus access is available for this station (unlike the nearby Glen Street station), however local taxicabs do stop there.
