History[edit]

A temporary Artarmon station opened on 6 July 1898, before the present station opened on 7 October 1900.[3][4] It was named after an original Crown grant where the station is now. In April 2015, work commenced on the construction of a new footbridge that will include lifts at the northern end of the platform.[5] The footbridge has since been finished in the same year.
