I've not heard any plans to do this, but that doesn't mean anything
with NJT. They did NOT close the Ramsey station when the Ramsey 17
station opened.

Haven't heard either way. Lake Hopatcong station is in Roxbury
Township, while the new Mount Arlington station straddles the line
between Roxbury and Mount Arlington Borough. Since both towns are
somewhat broad, it would make sense to call the station "Howard
Boulevard".

Late this year.

Two minutes, probably, offset if they ever get around to closing
Great Notch (which HAS been rumored).
