Caldwell Railway Passenger Station
Essex Fells, New Jersey
Oak Lane (relocated)
1892
Once made of fieldstone and stucco, and its dimensions were 20 ft. x 57 ft.
It was built for less than $3,000.
Besides being a railroad
station, it was also used as an office for the New York Suburban Land
Company.
Today, the station is being
used as a private residence. However, the serpentine timbering in the
gables were removed as well as the Porte-cochere, fieldstone, and fireplace.
There also has been some alterations by adding dormers and additions.
* Special thanks to Mark Schmitt for confirming the station's existence.
