Hollis is a station on the Long Island Rail Road's Main Line, located at the intersection of 193rd Street and Woodhull Avenue in Hollis, Queens, New York City, United States. It has two side platforms along the four-track line, and only serves Hempstead Branch trains. The station was originally called East Jamaica, until its name was changed in 1885. The original station house was destroyed by arson on November 2, 1967, and a new one was built in the early 1990s.
