The station previously hosted private shuttle services to hotels and Mystic Lake Casino until those services moved to a new charter bus terminal on the north side of the mall in 2015.Ī $25 million upgrade to the station was completed Octowith an official ribbon-cutting ceremony February 14, 2020. The station is served by Metro Blue Line and Red Line.
