Artarmon Railway Station is historically significant for its ability to demonstrate phases of development in policy and practice of the NSW railways, with the building mirroring the expansion of the railway network in the 1890-1930 period. The station is one of the original stops on the North Shore line, and it is historically linked to the political situation at this time, with its establishment at this location directly linked to a local estate development by Mayor Thomas Broughton. The station is also significant for its association to Broughton, who was a landowner, businessman and Mayor of Sydney City Council.
