Richmond Transit Station

Project Details

Construction of a transit station that is the “jewel” of the Richmond Transit Village. Many features were incorporated to aesthetically improve the landscape of the local community. This includes a new BART elevator housed within a conical tower clad in multi-colored aluminum, a 3,200 SF aluminum clad enclosed structure, a 11,250 SF canopy roof structure incorporating an innovative architectural design of translucent roofing assemblies and standing sheet metal on structural steel, a 21,000 SF two-level plaza area, and 100 linear feet of 18′ tall architectural retaining walls. Decorative fencing was done by renowned Bay Area sculptor Vickie Jo Sowell and the tiled murals were provided by acclaimed Bay Area artists Daniel Galvez and Jos Sances.
