Hayden Island Light Rail Station Workshop

September 2009

On September 30, the Portland Working Group (PWG) hosted a community workshop to gather input for the design of the future light rail station on Hayden Island. About 50 people attended the workshop. Architects and urban designers worked with the PWG members and community to develop principles to guide the future design work.  

Following a presentation of station design principles, the attendees were split into four groups and asked to review three design scenarios (elevated, gateway and plaza) and provide input on six design areas:

  • Station position and type
  • Height and vertical circulation
  • Pedestrian and bike connectivity
  • Relationship to adjacent streets and development
  • Station architecture and gateway treatments
  • Safety and security

Feedback from the workshop will be considered by the PWG, the project and project partners to help guide development of the light rail station on Hayden Island.
