The Lehigh Valley station located on the northwest side of Geneva at Sherrill street and Wilbur avenue was built in 1892. It was designed by architect, Aldah B. Wood of Ithaca. Of Romanesque Revival architecture, the red brick station features many tall, brick arched, leaded glass windows, and a fanciful roof with several peaks, valleys and miniature towers and dormers. Nearby, coal, ice, and other small businesses utilized the numerous sidings and small switching yard. Anchored at the southeast corner by a tower entrance way to the main waiting room, the station was situated next to an embankment that carried the double track mainline. The large waiting room featured a huge fireplace, a two story cathedral ceiling, leaded glass windows, decorative spindles and brackets with supporting beams and plaster leaf motifs. Behind it, a baggage room opened on one side to the tracks and on the other to the station carriage way. A restaurant (closed in the 1920's) and a kitchen were located to the rear of the building. Trackside, a large platform canopy was added sometime after the station was built.
