Modernized station opens as part of $30M Greenwich Crossing redevelopment
The Ashforth Company announced the completion of the newly renovated Greenwich Train Station, a major milestone in its $30 million, multi-phased Greenwich Crossing redevelopment. Designed by Beyer Blinder Belle as a welcoming gateway to downtown Greenwich, the modernized station officially opened on January 30.
The comprehensive renovation enhances access and experience for commuters and visitors. As this phase is completed, improvements will include a new exterior facade, upgraded platform access, and new pedestrian pathways, with all sidewalks and curbing replaced from the Arch Street railroad bridge to the Steamboat Road railroad bridge, along with a new staircase at Steamboat Road. Inside the station, renovations include full-glass entrance facades, a new wood-slatted ceiling, designer lighting, upgraded restrooms, and new flooring, glass railings, signage, and a new elevator.
“This station represents far more than a renovation – it’s a reinvestment in Greenwich and the daily experience of everyone who passes through it,” said Ryan Harvey, CEO & President of The Ashforth Company. “We’re incredibly grateful to the residents, commuters, and local businesses for their patience and support throughout construction. Opening the station is an important milestone, but what’s most exciting is what comes next: the continued transformation of Greenwich Crossing into a vibrant, connected destination that will serve the town and region for generations.”
The station’s reopening marks a key phase in the multi-phase Greenwich Crossing project, which also includes a new 5,000 square foot anchor restaurant with expansive outdoor seating, renovated storefronts, and new landscaping with trees and plantings surrounding the retail areas, street, and train platform. Together, these elements are designed to seamlessly connect Greenwich Avenue’s active streetscape with the station.
Renovations of the remaining storefronts are nearing completion, while construction of the restaurant structure and new landscaping will continue through early spring 2026.
While the station is open, the new elevator inside is expected to be operational in March. The MTA elevators on the platforms remain open and accessible from both sides of the pedestrian bridge.
“This project reflects the strength of collaboration and craftsmanship across our entire team, and we are extremely thankful for their incredible work and the instrumental support of the Town of Greenwich and the Greenwich Building Department,” said Andrew Ashforth, CEO & President of A.P. Construction and Co-Chair of the Board of The Ashforth Company. Ashforth has believed in Greenwich for decades – from the original development of the Greenwich Plaza office complex and the station in 1970 to today’s Greenwich Crossing investment. This renovation reinforces our long-term commitment to the town and our confidence in its future.”
