Mission Statement
Our mission is to save the Lockport New York Central Train Station on Union Street from ruin due to time, weather, and vandalism.
Who We Are
New York Central Train Station, Inc is a 501(c)(3) non- profit created because we love the Lockport train station and we know the community does too! We want to see this registered historic landmark restored to its former glory. With the help of volunteers, private donations, grants, sponsors, and some hard work, we think that can happen. The current plan for the building restoration can be found at the link below.
Currently, we are maintaining the property and preventing any further degradation of this long neglected site. When the restoration is complete, we will provide a restored building that promotes tourism in the area, brings in trains, offers a community gathering space, and supports events from local businesses.
The Result
New York Central Train Station, Inc is fighting to restore this historic train station and save it from the relentless onslaught of weather-related damage, erosion, and vandalism.
When the station is operating and open to the public, we believe people will ride the train for a day trip into Lockport. With trains stopping here from Brockport and Niagara Falls. We also intend to support events from Medina Railroad and Spring Lake Winery among others.
Once passengers disembark, they are walking distance from the newly renovated Historic Palace Theater, Cornerstone Ice Arena, Main and Market Street shopping, The engineering marvel that is the Historic Lockport Locks is just a ten minute walk, and the list goes on.
