Close

The station opened on July 1, 2002, as part of the Red Line's third major expansion. It served as the northern terminus of the line until December 9, when the line was extended to Parker Road.^[2]

The station is adjacent to the Charles W. Eisemann Center for Performing Arts and a portion of Richardson's Telecom Corridor, which includes offices for AT&T, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, GEICO,^[1] Goldman Sachs, and CBRE Group.^[3] A shuttle bus connects to the Palisades office and residential park on the other side of US-75.^[4]

In tribute to the Telecom Corridor, the station is decorated with a technology theme. The station's pedestrian entrance is flanked by two columns resembling abstract satellite dishes, and the station's support beams are covered in bundles of steel resembling communication wires. The station fencing includes panels that resemble a circuit board, as well as panels that spell "GALATYN PARK" in Morse code, analog signal, and teletype.^[5]
