Reviews of Asbury Park
"Under construction, difficult signage, if any. Good announcements. Difficult exiting or entering track platforms."
"Worst station on the NJCL. Most of the station is used for other purposes. Tunnel to get under the tracks is closed. West side parking lot is permanently closed. East side lot is shared with municipal services. You have to walk behind a shopping complex’s dumpster area to get to the other side of the tracks. Not sure if it is NJT or the city that hates the commuters more here."
"Worst train station ever. No signs. Nothing open. Not lit well. Be better AP"
"Great ride ! operates New Jersey's public transportation system. safe, reliable, convenient and cost friendly"
"Asbury Park is an NJ Transit railway station in Asbury Park, in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. It is served by trains on the North Jersey Coast Line. It is located along Cookman Avenue between Main Street and Memorial Drive. The current Asbury Park station is one of two original Asbury Park stations on the line. The North Asbury Park station still exists, but is no longer a station stop; the former station was located at the Sunset Avenue crossing. Railroad service into Asbury Park began in 1875 with the construction of an extension of the New York and Long Branch Railroad (NY&LB). It was finished in 1875. The railroad was extended through the city of Asbury Park. The new station was built for the purposes of serving both Asbury Park and Ocean Grove. However, the railroad obeyed the request of the Campmeeting Association that trains could not stop within the city of Asbury Park on Sundays due to religious requirements, despite the fact that the Asbury Park–Ocean Grove station produced the most revenue of any station on the line. Construction of a new depot in Asbury Park began on the morning of February 8, 1922. This concluded 40 years of pressuring the New York and Long Branch to build a new depot in the city because the old depot could not handle the amount of traffic coming in and out of Asbury Park. Workers moved all the functions into the south end of the older depot on February 8 to allow for construction to begin. This station depot, a majestic replacement over the original, opened on November 2, 1922. The new depot, of brick and reinforced concrete, cost $200,000 (1922 USD). This new depot was 20 by 30 feet (6.1 m × 9.1 m) large with a grand chandelier in the depot. The depot was symmetrically designed on both sides. A local editorial piece in the Asbury Park Evening Press noted that the city should be proud of the new depot. However, there was still concern that the depot was not large enough to handle the expected amount of business, which proved to be true for several decades after its construction. As the New York and Long Branch Railroad began to deteriorate due to the advent of the Garden State Parkway, the station deteriorated with it. The railroad painted the depot in 1962. Six ticket windows opened with the station, and eventually it became just one. Conrail, who took over in 1976, looked to sell off depots. The railroad offered the depot for the city to use. Asbury Park preferred to demolish the station and replace it with a new municipal complex, which would cost $2.3 million. $1.5 million of that total would come from the Economic Development Administration. This new complex would provide new homes for the Asbury Park City Council, the Asbury Park Police Department along with various city offices. The city spent $800,000 for alternative costs along with $50,000 for land acquisition. The Historic Preservations Advisory Council came to protest to the demolition of the 55-year old depot in 1977, citing the historic nature of the depot. They were hoping to get an injunction against the demolition, stating the depot was eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. However, despite the protests, the city manager signed off in November 1977 to seek bids for demolition. On January 4, 1978, the city approved a contract with Mazza and Sons, Inc. of Oceanport for $10,910 (1978 USD). The station depot would be replaced with a wooden trailer for Conrail employees to sell tickets. Demolition of the old station came in March 1978."
