Public artwork

As part of Metro's Arts in Transit initiative, Oasis by Catherine Woods was commissioned in 2004 for installation at the MetroBus transfer center. The artwork features laminated glass panels symbolizing the four classical elements—earth, air, fire, and water—alongside a fifth element represented by aluminum panels inspired by international symbols of luck, signifying good fortune.

In 2008, artist Carol Fleming contributed Grandfather Clocks to the MetroLink station: a trio of glazed ceramic sculptures reminiscent of traditional railroad timepieces.
