Mount Kisco (Metro-North station)
The Mount Kisco Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of Mount Kisco, New York, USA via the Harlem Line. It is 36.5 miles (59 km) from Grand Central Terminal and the average travel time to Grand Central is 56 minutes.
It is located adjacent to downtown Mount Kisco. The old train station building still exists, but no longer serves the railroad. The other part is currently a café. This station is the first/last station in the Zone 6 Metro-North fare zone.
==History==
The New York and Harlem Railroad laid tracks through Mount Kisco during the 1840s, installing a station in the community as far back as February 1847. Long after being acquired by New York Central Railroad, the original passenger station was replaced by a second Richardson Romanesque-style depot in 1910. The station also contains two former freight houses, one of which is a wooden one from 1890, and is located at 105 Kisco Avenue. The other is made of brick and located in the vicinity of the existing station house.〔(Existing Railway stations in Westchester County, New York )〕 In 1968, New York Central merged with Pennsylvania Railroad, thereby transforming the station into a Penn Central Railroad station, however Penn Central's financial troubles two years later forced them to turn all regional passenger operations over to the MTA who converted it into part of Metro-North Railroad in 1983. Mile-markers noting the distance between Grand Central Terminal and the former northern terminus of the Harlem Line at Chatham Union Station can still be found on the station house to this day.〔(Flickr Photo of Mount Kisco Station House by Doug Kerr )〕 The passenger station currently serves as an Italian restaurant,〔(Via Vanti! )〕 while the brick freighthouse survives as a local pizzeria.〔(Mario's Pizza and Pasta )〕
The ticket window was closed in 2007 due to low usage. Tickets are now purchased through a ticket machine or on board the train.
