Station art
PROJECT: Station Platform Balustrade
ARTIST: Patrick Marold (Denver, CO)
DESCRIPTION: Marold's artwork is the stainless steel guardrail that surrounds most of the station platform with a gentle, wandering line. This meandering gesture moves gradually up and down, drawn by an unseen hand. The reflection of light and shadows changes depending on the time of day or season of the year, creating a dynamic visual experience for those waiting for the train or simply passing through. Four benches will punctuate the guardrail, each made from colored glass layered with stainless steel and lit subtly from below.
Bellevue Downtown is a short, 5-minute ride from here.
The street-level station includes approximately 300 parking spaces and supports future transit oriented development in Bellevue’s new Spring District neighborhood.
Station platforms and awnings are coming into view.
