History

The Glen Cove station, (née Nassau), was built in 1895, at the behest of the "Gold Coast" millionaires. These wealthy locals, such as the Pratts and J.P. Morgan, who were looking for a more dignified station to disembark at than the existing station on Glen Street.[1][2] The picturesque station has been featured in several movies, including Sabrina, Hello Again, and several commercials.[2][3]
