Lincoln Street/Southwest 3rd Avenue is a light rail station on the MAX Orange Line, located at 229 Southwest Lincoln Street in Portland, Oregon.[1]

Features

Trio, a series of three mixed metal sculptures by Elizabeth Conner, was installed at the site in 2013.[2]

The Lincoln Street/Southwest 3rd Avenue Mstation features an experimental "eco-track" with 1-inch-thick (2.5 cm) mats of grass to create a vegetated trackway that reduces stormwater runoff. The surface, which primarily uses species from the Sedum genus of flowering plants, was installed in November 2013 by contractors Stacy and Witbeck on both sides of the station's island platform.[3][4]
