Glen Street is a railroad station along the Oyster Bay Branch of the Long Island Rail Road. It is located on Glen Street (former NY 107), near Elm Avenue, in the City of Glen Cove, New York.

Glen Street Station was the terminus of the branch when it was built on May 16, 1867, until the line was extended to Locust Valley in 1869. Glen Cove's first railroad station was located to the of the current station on the land now occupied by a Burger King. It was replaced in 1888. While it isn't listed on the National Register of Historic Places, like the nearby Sea Cliff Railroad Station, it has been listed as a New York State historic landmark since 1967.
