Close

The station marked the terminus of the original opening segment of the Hudson–Bergen Light Rail from 34th Street station in Bayonne and West Side Avenue in Jersey City. In 2017, the platforms at the station were extended by 25 feet (7.6 m) to their current length of 190 feet (58 m). The work was done to accommodate new "extended" cars that were introduced to ease overcrowding during peak periods of ridership.^[3]
