New York Gov. Kathy Hochul yesterday announced the completion of a project that transformed the MTA Metro-North Railroad Port Jervis Station in Port Jervis, New York.

The top-to-bottom transformation at the West of Hudson terminus station included the construction of a one-car length high-level platform, a concrete ramp leading from the parking lot to the platform and a new sidewalk, according to a Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) press release.

Improvements were also made to the existing parking lot to allow easier access onto the platform. The platform canopy was remodeled with a modern wooden ceiling and with sleek station signage. Other upgrades include new benches with USB ports, new LCD kiosk and security cameras to enhance safety at the station.

Here is a full view of the new station, but I think the platform is a bit shorter than the existing station, but still a visual improvement nonetheless. How about restoring to the true Port Jervis Station?
