Location

Near the station is a ferry dock which is used by the NY Waterway-operated ferry connection to Haverstraw, allowing Rockland County, New York commuters to use the Hudson Line as an alternative to the New Jersey Transit-operated lines across the Hudson River.

Just south of the station is a section of track which runs through the middle of Sing Sing Correctional Facility.
