Jim,

Any information on why the station is being torn-down?  It doesn't seem to 
have generated much public notice or comment.  I could find no stories in 
Newsday or anything on the Web about the demolition.

You'll find some detailed photos of the station from 1999, including 
architectural details at:

1/2 way).
