Central West End station is a St. Louis MetroLink station.[1] It is located in the Central West End neighborhood just southeast of the intersection of Euclid Avenue and Children's Place. This station serves the Washington University Medical Center, Barnes-Jewish Hospital and St. Louis Children's Hospital. Central West End is also a major bus transfer and is the most used station in the MetroLink system.[2]
In April 2021, Metro, in partnership with the Washington University School of Medicine and BJC HealthCare, completed a major upgrade to the station. The upgrade included a new glass canopy covering 60% of the platform, a glass elevator outside of the path of pedestrian travel, a WUSM welcome center at the Euclid level entrance and exit, the main stairwell was widened from Шаблон:Convert to Шаблон:Convert, additional lighting and fencing was added, and the station aesthetic was modified to match adjacent hospital buildings.[3]
Station layout
The station can be accessed by stairs or an elevator at the west end of the platform near Euclid Avenue and Children's Place. The Central West End MetroBus Center is located on the ground level of the Barnes-Jewish staff parking garage and is accessible via lighted walkway from the east end of the platform.

Public artwork
In 2000, Metro's Arts in Transit program commissioned the work Ohne Titel by Olafur Eliasson for installation in the tunnel near this station. The 60 aluminum lamp housings with colored acrylic lenses and fluorescent lamps work together to create dabs of glowing colors that span the tunnel wall in an evenly spaced spectrum.[4]
