Share your feedback on the visual design of the new garage

Sound Transit is improving access to Kent Station for drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and bus riders, including building a parking garage as well as sidewalk, bicycle, and bus enhancements. Your feedback will help us determine the visual design of our new parking garage, which will be located just north of the station on busy James Street. Should it stand out or blend in? Feel modern or classic?

We want to hear from you! Learn more and give us your input:

  • Visit the online open house through April 26 (available in English, Spanish, and Russian).
  • Attend the drop-in session: Thursday, April 14, 3:30 to 6:30 p.m., Kent Station, 301 Railroad Ave N, east platform near bus loop.
  • Attend the virtual Q&A session: Monday, April 18, Noon to 1 p.m. (see link at https://kentstation.participate.online)

Give us your feedback by April 26
