Join the Lindenhurst Historical Society at Applebee’s Lindenhurst as the community continues to celebrate the 1901 Restored LIRR Depot & Freight House Museum’s 50^th Anniversary.  

Lindenhurst, NY – The Lindenhurst Historical Society continues its celebration of the 1901 Restored LIRR Depot & Freight House Museum’s 50^th Anniversary with a Sunday Morning Pancake Breakfast, October 13, 2024 from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. at the Lindenhurst Applebee’s Restaurant, 600 North Wellwood Avenue.

The 1901 Restored LIRR Depot & Freight House Museum located at Irmisch Park (South Broadway and South Third Street) has been integral to the Village of Lindenhurst and the Historical Society’s mission to preserve and celebrate the Village’s history.  In 1967, when it was learned that the Depot and Freight House stood in the way of the LIRR’s plans to eliminate grade crossings by elevating the Babylon line, the Lindenhurst Historical Society interceded.   Rather than demolishing the historic structure, the LIRR agreed to donate the structure to the Historical Society.  In  a joint effort with the Inc. Village of Lindenhurst, the building was moved to Irmisch Park where work ensued to separate the buildings and develop both as a museum complex dedicated to the premise that the railroad was a catalyst to the founding of our community in 1870, when the City of Breslau was established.  Museum renovations were completed in 1974 and the museum’s dedication and grand opening took place May 18, 1975. 

The 50^th Anniversary celebration kicked off earlier this year with the unveiling of a William G. Pomeroy Foundation Historic Transportation Marker which bears an inscription indicating the historic significance of the 1901 Restored LIRR Depot and Freight House.   The celebration will continue into next spring when a Family Fun Day is being planned to commemorate the May 18, 1975 opening of the Depot and Freight House as a museum.

The Village of Lindenhurst is committed to the safety of our residents, and their quality of life. Therefore, in an effort to keep the continuingly prevalent problem of cars illegally facing the wrong direction of traffic on our Village roadways under control, we are once again issuing this public reminder:

New York Vehicle and Traffic Law – Section 1203 (Additional Parking Regulations) and Lindenhurst Village Code – Vehicles and Traffic, Chapter 185-83 (Additional Parking Regulations) state, “every vehicle stopped, standing or parked upon a two-way roadway shall be so stopped, standing or parked with the right-hand-wheels of such vehicle parallel to and within twelve inches (12”) of the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway.”

In short, on a two-way roadway, as well as on one-way roadways, vehicles stopped, standing, or parked must be facing in the direction of authorized traffic movement on the portion of the roadway on which the vehicle rests.

When someone parks their vehicle facing on-coming traffic, or parks against the flow of traffic, it is not only unsightly, but more importantly, they are putting the safety of others and themselves at risk. First, on a two-way roadway, you need to drive into the wrong side of the road to park facing traffic. Secondly, when you are parked facing traffic, pulling out into head-on-traffic is dangerous. You might not be able to see cars coming towards you while pulling out, due to a blind spot from vehicles parked the right way in front of you.

In summary, you must park parallel to, and within twelve inches (12”) of, the right hand curb or edge of the roadway. If you park illegally against the flow of traffic, it is a parking violation, and could result in a parking ticket starting at $75.00. Please be advised that the Lindenhurst Code

Enforcement & Public Safety Officers enforce this traffic law, and will continue issuing summonses to violators.

We ask that everyone be a good neighbor and park your car on the right side of the road.

CALL 631-226-1212 FOR FIRE OR RESCUE EMERGENCIES

In any fire or rescue emergency, every second counts.  That is why we always encourage all residents of Lindenhurst, as well as the whole Town of Babylon, to call 631-226-1212 for a fire or rescue emergency.  In doing so, the call goes directly to our dispatcher, Babylon Central Fire Alarm.  Calling 911 is always an option, and will have us notified, but there could be a delay in doing so.

To serve you better, the Village of Lindenhurst has upgraded its parking meters on Wellwood Avenue to touch-screen parking meter kiosks that accept both coins and credit cards. In addition, “Pay-by-App” and “Pay-by-Text” options are also available that allow customers to pay without using the kiosk! The kiosks on North Wellwood Avenue have been up and running since June, and the kiosks on South Wellwood Avenue are now “live” as well!

As part of this new system, most parking spaces on Wellwood (between John Street and Gates Avenue) are numbered, and to begin any parking transaction, customers must enter their space number. Customers parking in a numbered space must use a new parking kiosk, or their smartphones (pay-by-app or pay-by-text), to pay for parking. Customers parking in non-numbered spaces with an old-style parking meter should continue to use the old meter as they do today. Also, specially marked 15-minute free “in-and-out” spaces will remain on both North and South Wellwood!

Parking times and fees remain the same as before — all meters are in effect Monday through Saturday from 9AM to 9PM; $0.25 per hour/3-hour maximum.

To view a brief video that describes how to use the Flowbird parking app, visit our Village website at www.villageoflindenhurstny.gov/new-parking-meter-kiosks-on-wellwood.

Questions? Call Village Hall at 631-957-7500 or email info@villageoflindenhurstny.gov.

Here are some additional instructions related to the new meters:

July 12th, 2024: Tonight’s summer concert has been cancelled due to inclement weather. The safety and comfort of our attendees, performers, and staff are our top priorities, and with the forecast predicting heavy rain throughout the evening, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the event. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Starting July 15^th, the LIRR will be taking both the escalator and adjoining stairs out of service at the Lindenhurst Station. The escalator will be out of service for approximately 3 weeks while the stairs will be out of service for 3 days (coming back into service on July 18^th).

This is to correct the ramp that leads up to the escalator itself, which is at a gradient that is not compliant with the latest ADA standards and also to replace those railings. While it is out of service, passengers can use either staircase to the west or east, or of course, the brand new elevator!
