Flats East Bank station is a station on the RTA Waterfront Line in Cleveland, Ohio. The station is located along West 10th Street just southeast of its intersection with Main Avenue in The Flats district.
History[edit]
The station opened on July 10, 1996,[2] when light rail service was extended 2.2 miles (3.5 km) from Tower City through The Flats and along the lakefront. This extension was designated the Waterfront Line, although it is actually an extension of the Blue and Green Lines, as trains leaving this station toward Tower City continue along the Blue or Green Line routes to Shaker Heights.
Station layout[edit]
The station has two side platforms, each with a glass shelter and a mini-high platform which allow passengers with disabilities to access trains.
