The Fort Edward-Glens Falls Station is a train station in Fort Edward, New York. It was originally built as a Delaware and Hudson Railroad depot in 1900, as a replacement for two earlier stations. The first was built in 1840 but was later converted into a store in 1880, the same year it was replaced with a second depot on the existing site.[3] The third and current station has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since December 13, 2000.[4]
Presently, the station offers a waiting room with vending machines, seating, and an art gallery with gift shop(featuring local artisans and Adirondack Wares). Timeless Arts and Gallery and Gifts serves beverages and light snacks for traveling passengers as well.[5]
