    Soooo glad I'm not going the opposite way!

    Convenient station located right in front of the US Bank Stadium. Tickets are sooo cheap ($2.00), and even when it's crowded, it's still a wonderfully pleasant ride. Make sure that you have your ticket close at hand... Especially on game day. The police set up a checkpoint and they check everyone's ticket as they depart the train and walk towards the stadium.

    My wife and I were here for a Red Hot Chili Pepper concert and wow.... What an experience. That stadium was set up great and sounded amazing! 10/10

    Busy spot to catch the green line or blue line. There's also multiple busses in the area you can catch as well. This station has a ticket machine and is located right outside US Bank stadium. Sometimes it gets busy on game days but for the most part (and since covid restrictions) the stop has been fairly deserted unless it's rush hour time.

    The station to get off at when attending a Vikings football game. We took the line from the Mall of America parking for free in there covered garage parking lot. It takes about 30 minutes to get to the stadium and about 45 minutes to get back to the stadium after the game. The trains are super clean and extremely timely. If you hate driving around in traffic looking for an expensive parking lot taking the "line" is the way to go.

    This is more than just a Light Rail Transit Station, it contains a great, large outdoor plaza with one of the best Skyline views in the city (see photo). I think this is one of thee best and most safest places to sit on a bench and take in the city lights at night while eating, having coffee or doing whatever. It's quite enchanting to hear the sound of the trains and be amonst the spectacal of the city at night. I think the plaza is a space that most anyone would feel comfortable in. It is very safe since it is a well lit area with an adjacent Light Rail Station which frequently has not only riders but also security guards. The plaza is also not in a secluded area as it is surrounded by many main roads. Yet it gives you your own space, and there are small ornamental trees that overhang the benches near Kirby Puckett Place.

    This place is incredible! Lots of close/walking distance to stadium parking! The Club seats are gorgeous with extremely friendly staff!

    Sprawling station accommodates crowds after games. Great skyline views from here, and just lots of space around the platform for activities. There's a cool snow globe in one of the shelters that's fun to play around with, while listening to a station audio program, which usually involves poetry, stories and music. This is a handy, well-located LRT stop.

    Fun video to watch while you wait

    Since it's right near US Bank, it can get absolutely crazy on game day, but the transit staff and security do a fairly decent job with crowd control; I was pleasantly surprised.

    Five Stars for Going in the Right Direction: A Review of Metro Transit…read more Metro Transit, the public transportation system serving the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, deserves a solid five-star rating--not just for reliability and reach, but for its meaningful progress over the years. As someone who began riding the bus regularly in middle school, I've had a front-row seat to the evolution of this system, and I can confidently say it's heading in the right direction. When I first started using Metro Transit, the experience was undeniably hit-or-miss. While the routes were functional, issues like infrequent service, aging buses, and occasional safety concerns made it more of a necessity than a comfort. Over the years, however, I've watched the system mature into something far more dependable, user-friendly, and community-oriented. One of the most noticeable improvements since the post-pandemic recovery has been the enhanced sense of safety. In the past, riding during off-peak hours could feel risky--altercations, loitering, or suspicious activity weren't uncommon. But recently, that's changed dramatically. There's now a consistent police and transit security presence, and it's become routine to see uniformed officers on buses, at stops, and in transit centers. This isn't about over-policing; it's about creating a safer environment for riders of all backgrounds. The visible security presence acts as both a deterrent and a reassurance, making the experience more comfortable, especially for vulnerable populations like students, seniors, and late-night commuters. Beyond safety, Metro Transit stands out for its impressive coverage. Unlike many regional systems that primarily serve downtown cores, Metro Transit extends its reach deep into the suburbs. Whether you're commuting from Apple Valley, Eagan, Plymouth, or even farther out, there are reliable bus routes--or bus rapid transit options like the METRO lines--that connect seamlessly to downtown Minneapolis or Saint Paul. This kind of accessibility is rare in American public transit and reflects a genuine commitment to inclusivity and regional integration. The fleet itself has modernized, too. With newer, low-emission buses, better real-time tracking via apps, and expanded routes like the METRO Orange and planned Gold Lines, the system feels increasingly forward-thinking. Fare payment methods have also improved, with the option to use mobile apps or contactless cards--small but meaningful upgrades that streamline the rider experience. Of course, there's always room for growth--increased frequency during off-peak hours, expanded weekend service, and further integration with surrounding suburbs would make the system even stronger. But compared to many other U.S. cities, Metro Transit is ahead of the curve. In conclusion, Metro Transit has transformed from a basic necessity into a model of what regional public transportation can and should be. It's safe, expansive, evolving, and increasingly reliable. For a system that serves such a diverse and geographically spread population, it's an achievement worth recognizing. Five stars well earned--for going in the right direction, and for getting more of us there safely and efficiently.

Both light rail lines (Blue and Green) stops here, though there is an earlier stop (US Bank Stadium stop) that could be easily used for transfer. Cost is $2 for a 2.5 hour ticket, and this station has self-serve ticket kiosks to purchase Go-To tap cards. None of the stops have gates, instead having tap stations nearby the entrances to indicate payment. We used this station to come/go to the airport and used it to take the Green line to go to St Paul as well. Most people will get off on the north platform (coming from St Paul or the Airport) and wait to board the train from the South Platform ( going either South or East). The train consistently ran every 10 minutes, and the digital display accurately showed which train and arrival times.

My friend had better luck, and albeit I was drinking, doesn't give her the right to be a complete B word. We got off to a bad start because she answered and she spoke so fast, I couldn't understand her so I had to say, "wait, what?" I told her the address I was at, and first she asked East or West, and I wasn't sure and said "east, I think. I'm on 27th st S and Hennepin Ave, in uptown". Then she said "North or South?" and I said.."um.. south? I'm in uptown" She then says "this is your cab not mine, I don't care where they pick you up". Thank you lady, and isn't it your JOB to punch the address into the computer and it will tell you where I am? Frustrated, I hung up. My friend had better luck after she called back (not able to get through to rainbow or blue and white) and she said the address and said south (didn't i just say this?) and the cab was at the house within 5? minutes. It even called her when it was out front. The cab driver was nice, but he did drive extremely fast, and illegally at some point. I appreciated the hustle because it was late, and we were going to NE minneapolis, but it was still $22. I didn't have much money to give him as a tip, but because the lady was so rude from the start, i will try to use a different cab company in the future.

    Yes, I am Yelping a bridge! And a beautiful one at that; the Merriam St. Bridge has the great honor…read moreof crossing the mighty & historical Mississippi River. Where I come from, there is a handful (one hand) of awesome bridges and not many gushing rivers for them to cross. So, I kind of got excited to walk across this one and admire it's delicate yet strong construction. The Minnesota DOT said "The Merriam Bridge is a three-span, steel-girder bridge that carries Merriam Street across the east channel of the Mississippi River between Nicollet Island and the bank of the river in Minneapolis. The bridge incorporates one of the original Pratt through truss spans from the Broadway Bridge, which was demolished and replaced in 1987." However, now the truss is purely decorative: the Merriam Bridge is supported by a beam from underneath. Merriam Bridge was originally built by King Iron Bridge Company in 1887 as one of the four spans of the very fancy Broadway Avenue Bridge. When the Broadway Avenue Bridge was reconstructed in 1987, one span was preserved and moved to Nicollet Island. This opened up Nicollet Island and it's park lands, Pavilion and charming Nicollet Island Inn to greater usage and served as a connector to new Saint Anthony Main business and retail developments on the east bank. Thus, this pretty bridge served a great purpose and important role in the development of North Minneapolis. Merriam St. Bridge "contains substantial ornamentation including finials, portal cresting, and hexagonal cast iron builder plaques embossed with the date and designer of the bridge featured on each end. All these things were typical of 19th century urban bridges of that era. Few examples of these sorts of bridges remain today so "despite alteration, this span remains significant as a rare physical remnant of a 19th century urban metal truss bridge,"said a historic bridges website. As if further gilding of this lily was even necessary, nearby the Merriam Street Bridge, there was a large row of bountiful lilac trees in spectacular spring bloom on the Nicollet Island side in mid-May when I visited. How totally vintage it was to smell the old-fashioned lilacs while getting ready to cross this gorgeous old-fashioned bridge! 5 YELP STARS!
