It is also described as the only non-residential example of Dutch Colonial Revival architecture in the city.","narrative":"Built of brick in 1911 at the corner of Hay and Hillsborough streets, this Fayetteville railroad station was the third to occupy the site. The Atlantic Coast Line constructed it to replace earlier frame buildings. Its Dutch Colonial Revival design features a gambrel slate roof with exaggerated returns, bracketed lintels, fanlight windows with spider-web tracery, and double union jack motifs in the transom and railings. The interior originally held waiting rooms, a mail room and a baggage room, and these spaces remain intact, including the original wooden benches. The rail line arrived in 1885 as the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad and joined the Atlantic Coast Line in 1900. The railroad carried freight, mail and passengers, supporting the local textile industry and other businesses and helping the town recover from post-Civil War depression. The station is also noted as the only non-residential Dutch Colonial Revival building in Fayetteville, and it remained in rail use at the time of listing.","period_of_significance":"1900-","architect_builder":"unknown","architectural_style":"Dutch Colonial Revival","criteria":["A","B"],"status_note":"Described as in good condition and still in operation as a passenger station, with original interior spaces and waiting room benches intact; some outbuildings and support structures have been demolished.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:58:57.329564-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/99/7175/47717599/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/82001294.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82001294/e26451c2f0-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82001294/e26451c2f0-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"DanTD","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fayetteville_Amtrak-ACL_Station;_Hay_%26_Winslow.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">DanTD</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fayetteville_Amtrak-ACL_Station;_Hay_%26_Winslow.JPG"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"99000779","name":"Fayetteville Downtown Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/north-carolina/fayetteville-downtown-historic-district-99000779/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47717599","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fayetteville_station","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5439043"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/cumberland-county/atlantic-coast-line-railroad-station-82001294/"}
