Convention Center is a RTS Koiwai station in Koiwai on the Blue Line. Service began on April 19, 2010. The station includes a direct connection to the Koiwai Convention Center, which was added during a coinciding renovation of the convention center.
History[]
Although among the first planned to be open, it was the last to be constructed and opened in RTS Koiwai Phase V. Even with the construction of the Malcolm Gardens subway to provide additional transit coverage to underserved neighborhoods in Koiwai, Malcolm Gardens is still among the least transit-accessible areas in the city, rivaled only by the RTS- and Circulator-devoid Westside.
Location[]
The station is located in Malcolm Gardens at Whitehouse Road and Milton Green Place. It takes its name from the fact that the station's entrance is connected to the Koiwai Convention Center.
