Cedar Manor station
Cedar Manor, originally named Power Place[1] was a railroad station along the Atlantic Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, in Queens, New York City. The station opened as a small one-story frame station here in 1906,[2][3] east of the track and north of what was then called Power Place,[4] which was later renamed 114th Avenue,[5] and finally renamed Linden Boulevard. Cedar Manor was a real estate development covering the neighborhood generally west and north of the crossing of the LIRR with New York Boulevard. Before World War I it was a signal stop only.[6] The station was phased out on January 28, 1959 and the building was razed in February 1959 with grade elimination, and was discontinued as a station stop.[2][7]
