Pinehurst Station Bursts into Action, as Upzones Trail Behind

Sound Transit’s Pinehurst Station opened on NE 130th Street in North Seattle on September 30, serving the 1 and 2 light rail lines. The $240 million infill station opened five years ahead of the original 2031 timeline, though zoning changes to support housing near the station remain stalled due to legal challenges, expected not before 2028.
