It is located at 35 South Main Street between West Central Avenue and Jefferson Avenue. Pearl River is the last station in New York, heading from Spring Valley towards Hoboken Terminal.
The land donated for the station came from Julius Braunsdorf, a local entrepreneur, who won a lawsuit against the Singer Corporation. Braunsdorf opened Central Avenue, the local post office, and the railroad station. Known as Muddy Brook, Braunsdorf suggested the hamlet be renamed for the pearls in the local river. [5] Braunsdorf built originally two facilities at Pearl River, but some time after 1880, these were merged into one structure. [6]
