Emerson Park station is a St. Louis MetroLink station. This station is a major transfer for MetroBus and Madison County Transit and features 816 park and ride spaces and 25 long-term spaces. There is a pedestrian bridge across nearby Interstate 64 that connects the station area to other parts of East St. Louis.

In 2021, the concrete area between the bus bays and MetroLink entrance was updated into an interactive and engaging space that boasts a vibrant-colored jazz theme, spaces to gather, greenery, shaded seating, canopies, and a mural inspired by design concepts that were submitted by East St. Louis High School students. The second "Transit Stop Transformation" project to be completed, it was unveiled on August 23, 2021, by Citizens for Modern Transit, the St. Clair County Transit District, AARP in St. Louis, and Metro Transit.

Location

In 2014, a transit-oriented development called Jazz at Walter Circle opened adjacent to this station. The 74-unit mixed-use apartment building offers more than 100,000 square feet of floor space and includes a full-service grocery store.

In 2022, the St. Clair County Transit District awarded a $13.5 million dollar contract to construct a new public safety center at the Emerson Park Transit Center. The new center will house office space for St. Clair County MetroLink Sheriff’s Deputies, a Metro Transit Operational Control Center and the St. Clair County CENCOM West 9-1-1 Emergency Dispatch Center. It will have public restrooms for riders and is expected to open in 2024.
