A big construction project isn't the only thing getting us ready to open the Hilltop Tacoma Link Extension next year.
At the end of July, crews started to install the art pieces by Kenji Stoll that will beautify the new stations.
Stoll is a visual artist based in Tacoma. He has an interest and focus in public art, large scale murals, design and community development.
The Hilltop extension more than doubles the length of the T Line, starting with a relocated Theater District station, and adding six new stations.
These connect to popular destinations such as the Stadium District, Wright Park and major medical facilities before reaching the Hilltop neighborhood.
Platforms are located in the center roadway, and the art pieces are on top of the stations.
