Port Richmond is a station on the abandoned North Shore Branch of the Staten Island Railway. It has two tracks and an island platform. It is on a trestle at Park Avenue and Church Street. It was closed on March 31, 1953, along with the rest of the North Shore Branch and South Beach Branch. It is one of the few stations along the North Shore line standing today, although in ruins.
