The countdown is on.

When Pinehurst Station opens on Sept. 30, it will become Sound Transit's first-ever infill station — and it will do so five years ahead of schedule. 

But before the first riders step onto the platform, we're taking a look back at the people, progress and milestones that brought this new North Seattle station to life.

Take a trip down memory lane with the gallery below and see how Pinehurst Station came together, one milestone at a time.

Some of the groups that helped build the project are also supporting the opening event! We are grateful to HNTB, Jacobs, Absher and PGH Wong for their support and look forward to celebrating with them and the community at the opening event on Sept. 30.
