38th & Blake station is also served by TheRide buses and has a 200-space park-and-ride lot, connected via a pedestrian bridge over freight rail lines.[3]
The station opened on April 22, 2016, along with the rest of the A Line.[4]
38th & Blake station is planned to be the centerpiece to a new, transit-oriented neighborhood that would replace existing industrial buildings with mixed-use buildings for residences, offices and retail.[5][6] It is also proposed as the northern terminus of the L Line, created by extending the existing terminus north from 30th & Downing station along Downing Street.[7]
38th & Blake station features an art piece titled Conflux/Redox by artist, architect, and printmaker Kelton Osborn. It was installed in 2016 on the sides of the station's pedestrian bridge's concrete support structure. Conlux/Redox is made of powder coated aluminum and steel in a design inspired by the heavy industry that once existed around the station and the future creative industry of RiNo.[8][9]
