Constructed in 1867 by the San Francisco and San Jose Railroad Company, this building is the oldest railroad passenger station in California. Its Victorian ornamentation was added in the 1890s when the station was remodeled to serve the newly-opened Stanford University. An extension on the northwest was later added to accommodate increased traffic generated by the establishment of nearby Camp Fremont during World War I.
