It had two side platforms and two tracks and was located at Major Avenue. The station was able to platform two train cars.[1] HistoryThis station was abandoned when the SIRT discontinued passenger service on the South Beach Branch to Wentworth Avenue at midnight on March 31, 1953 because of city-operated bus competition.[1][2][3][4] The station was fully demolished when the toll plaza of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge was built near the same location. Only one staircase that led to the station remained by 1963, as the rest of the station was covered by displaced dirt coming from the construction of the approach to the Verrazano Bridge. The location where McClean Avenue used to bridge over the right-of-way, which was built in 1936, has been filled in some time after 1964 for the construction of houses along the right-of-way, and the bridge can still be detected by the cement in the middle of McClean Avenue.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web | title=Gary Owen SIRT Page Part Two | website=Gary Owen Land | date=April 20, 1937 | url=http://www.gretschviking.net/GOSIRTPagePartTwo.htm | accessdate=December 13, 2015}} 2. ^{{cite book |last=Pitanza |first=Marc |title=Staten Island Rapid Transit Images of Rail |publisher=Arcadia Publishing |year=2015 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=eOSsCQAAQBAJ&pg=PA7&dq=staten+island+rapid+transit&hl=en |isbn=978-1-4671-2338-9}} 3. ^{{cite book |last=Drury |first=George H. |title=The Historical Guide to North American Railroads: Histories, Figures, and Features of more than 160 Railroads Abandoned or Merged since 1930 |publisher=Kalmbach Publishing |year=1994 |location=Waukesha, Wisconsin |pages=312–314 |isbn=0-89024-072-8}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=The Old Order Passeth: Rails Surrender To Roads: Passenger Runs on Two Lines of SIRT Will End at Midnight|url=http://gretschviking.net/GOSIRTPage1_files/image009.jpg|accessdate=October 14, 2015|publisher=Staten Island Advance|date=March 31, 1953}} External links
