70th Street Trolley Station, La Mesa CA

There are over 40 art elements, which encourages investigation.

Environmental stewardship is evident by recycled materials, native plants, and provocative displays.
The Train-like Apparatus Sculpture, and LED light installation, 36 light pole bases with quotes, plant plaques (that inspired 2 magazine articles), a geology display, historic maps, all that excitement and still a tranquil place to sit.
