Close
In 2011, the station was temporarily closed to permit the demolition of the Grand Boulevard viaduct and the station's original 1993 elevator towers and stairs. A temporary station was employed while the bridge was replaced and a new MetroLink station was constructed. The new station and transfer center underneath the completed viaduct opened on August 20, 2012.[6]
