Station artwork
The terrazzo paving areas and porcelain enamel steel fence panels at this station are called "Journey to California" by Daniel Marlos. They resemble quilt designs that are centuries old and have descriptive names that correspond to important events. ‘Road to California’, ‘Railroad Crossing’, ‘Wandering Paths’, and ‘Wagon Wheel’ are just a few that actually deal with transportation. The selected pattern, Journey to California, is a pattern that references both California and travel.[5]
