Old City Hall station is a light rail station on Link light rail's T Line in Tacoma, Washington, United States. The station officially opened for service on September 16, 2023;[2] it is located at the northern end of downtown and named for the Old City Hall building, which it is adjacent to.[3][4]
The station replaced a station known as Theater District/South 9th Street station, located two blocks to the south. That station officially opened for service on August 22, 2003; it was located at the northern end of downtown and named for the several nearby performing arts venues.[1] The station closed on August 1, 2022, as part of work to connect the T Line with its extension to the Hilltop neighborhood, due to its close proximity with the new Old City Hall station.[5]
Artwork at the original Theater District station reflected the Theater District:[citation needed]
- Seats at the station resembled fold-up theater seats
- Bronze plaques in the ground were reproductions of historical theatrical posters
- Projectors projected theatrical scenes on screens at night
