The Rock Island Depot is a historic railroad station at 157 North Front Street, Hazen, Arkansas. It is a single story stuccoed brick building with Mediterranean style, built in 1915 by the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad (aka the "Rock Island Line"). Its main facade is oriented south, toward the former railroad tracks, with a projecting telegrapher's booth. It is topped by a tile roof with broad eaves supported by large brackets.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
