Park Avenue was a station on the Charlotte Trolley heritage streetcar line in South End of Charlotte, North Carolina, United States. The station first opened for service on August 30, 1996, with one track and one platform, located south adjacent to Park Avenue. After nearly a decade of service, the station was permanently closed on February 6, 2006. The relocation of Bland Street station, for the LYNX Blue Line, and the already close proximity of East/West Boulevard station made Park Avenue redundant and thus unnecessary. By end of 2006, the side platform and structure was razed; what remains at the former location are some brick and concrete foundation and a stone pattern walkway connecting to Park Avenue.[1][2]
