Absecon station
Due to the need to span Absecon Creek and Shore Road, an 'unusual' concrete and steel trestle was planned.In March 1940, the project reportedly cost $1.5 million and included a 'fireproof' station level with the elevated tracks.Even with the 1989 upgrade of the line owned by NJ Transit, most of the Absecon station still survives 72 years later.In 2019, the Absecon town council applied for transit village status from the New Jersey state government.The program provides state funding for a variety of infrastructure improvements if high-density buildings are added near mass transit locations.
