Washington Park Station is a light rail station on the Newark Light Rail's "Broad Street Extension". Service on this line opened on July 17, 2006 at 1:00 p.m. EDT. [ [http://www.njtransit.com/sa_travel_alerts.jsp#32301 New Jersey Transit Travel Alert announcing opening of Newark Light Rail Extended service.] ]

It is located in Downtown Newark, New Jersey, on the southbound side of Broad Street between Bridge and Lombardy Streets. It is directly across Broad Street from the headquarters of IDT Corporation and during the afternoon rush hour carries many outgoing commuters from this building to Newark Penn Station.

Two key attractions near this station are the Newark Museum and Newark Public Library. The station is also located near the James Street Commons Historic neighborhood and the Polhemus house. The station is above ground, as is most of the NLR second line, except for a two-track tunnel having a portal to the south of Center Street that connects the line to the original NCS line at Newark Penn Station. This station receives only southbound trains, which leave Newark Broad Street Station and continue on to NJPAC/Center Street Station and Newark Penn Station.
