| The
station in New Milford is now known as the Clifford Chapin Plaza, because
of the efforts of the former first selectman to rebuild the station that
was once falling apart. The station once had several sidings, a water
tower, an engine shop with a turntable to the north as well as a freight
depot to the west. The passenger canopy once extended southward from
the station towards Bridge Street, but today only the northward extension
still stands. For a bird's eye view of the station in 1906 look on the
New Milford Map page. Today, the
New Milford Chamber of
Commerce occupies the station along with a satellite station for the
New Milford Police. The freight yard is used for parking for access to the
downtown area of New Milford and the site where the engine shops &
turntable were are used by the public works department. |
