UMSL–North station is a light rail station on the Red Line of the St. Louis MetroLink system.[2] This station is located on an embankment near Arnold B. Grobman Drive and the Ted Jones Trail.
In the future, vacant land just to the north of the station could become home to a North St. Louis County recreation and athletics facility that would take advantage of a location near public transit and Interstate 70.[3]
Station layout
The station is located between two elevated viaducts, just east of the UMSL Campus Tunnel.[4] It is accessed via sidewalks from UMSL's Parking Lot F.
