Station Art:
The design of Bush Turnpike Station reflects both the Richardson/Plano area's farming history and the station's proximity to the modern turnpike. Station design artist Tom Orr aims to create a green, park-like space reflecting the location's farming history, and at the same time utilize the column shape and scale of the freeway overpass to unite the station to the modern turnpike. Design elements include 20-foot steel and wire mesh topiary columns planted with vines lit from inside at night. Paving stones form abstract quilt patterns recalling the days of picnics at the nearby creek. Fencing and hedges woven together create an organic, natural look.![Bush Turnpike Station image](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/web/20131216173430im_/http://www.dart.org/images/stations/bushturnpikeart.jpg)
