Built for the 1962 World's Fair, the historic Seattle Center Monorail Station remains one of Seattle's most recognizable landmarks and a vital connection between downtown Seattle and Seattle Center, serving more than 2.2 million riders each year. This GC/CM renovation reconfigures the station to improve accessibility, safety, and passenger flow while preserving the character of the historic facility and maintaining operations throughout construction.

Improvements include a new accessible ramp connecting Thomas Street to the station, platform upgrades, improved lighting, signage, and wayfinding, and reconfigured ticketing, queuing, and boarding areas designed to better accommodate large event crowds. The project also restores aging infrastructure, replaces deteriorated guardrails, and expands roof and skylight coverage to improve weather protection and extend the life of the station and its historic train cars.

Phased construction keeps the monorail operating throughout the project, with at least one train in service at all times.
