Public artwork

In 2004, Metro's Arts in Transit program commissioned the work Oasis by Catherine Woods for the adjacent MetroBus transfer center.[6] The panels of laminated glass are inspired by the four basic alchemical elements; earth, air, fire, and water. Included in the design is a fifth element based on the idea of good fortune.  This concept takes the form of four aluminum panels suspended alongside the glass pieces. They are pierced with abstract silhouettes inspired by symbols of good luck and symbols from Peruvian, Chinese, and African cultures.[7]

In 2008, the Arts in Transit program commissioned a work for the MetroLink station. Titled Grandfather Clocks and created by Carol Fleming, the three glazed ceramic sculptures are reminiscent of the old, regal railroad clocks.[8]
