Hunts Point station (Metro-North)

Hunts Point station is a planned passenger rail station on Metro-North Railroad's New Haven Line, to be located in the Hunts Point neighborhood of the Bronx in New York City. The station is planned to open in 2027 as part of the Penn Station Access project, which will add four stations in the Bronx. The station will be located north of Hunts Point Avenue, behind the former New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad station, which was designed by Cass Gilbert.
