Beacon Hill (Link station)
Beacon Hill is a station on Sound Transit's Link Light Rail system. It is situated between the Mount Baker and SODO stations on the Central Link line, which runs from Seattle–Tacoma International Airport through Rainier Valley to Downtown Seattle. The station is located under the southeast corner of Beacon Avenue South and South Lander Street in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Washington.
Beacon Hill Station was first proposed in 1998 and was opened on July 18, 2009, as part of the inaugural Link line, after five years of tunnel boring and station construction. It consists of a single island platform, divided into two sections by the Beacon Hill Tunnel; four high-speed elevators ferry passengers from the platform to the surface entrance. Trains serve the station 20 hours a day every day; the headway between trains is 6 minutes during peak periods, with less frequent service at other times. Beacon Hill Station is also served by two King County Metro buses that stop at a pair of sheltered bus stops on Beacon Avenue.
