The Glen Park BART Station, including the triangle-shaped lot upon which it sits, is geometric by design. Join Evelyn Rose, founder of the Glen Park Neighborhoods History Project, as she explores the 250+ years of transit history through Glen Park, revisits the neighborhood that once stood on the site that generated two major sports figures before World War II, spotlights the defining elements of the Brutalist architecture that defines the station's concrete edifice both inside and out and chronicles the impact on Glen Park once the station opened in 1972.
