History
In 1994, construction of the Westside MAX project began. On September 12, 1998, the station opened along with the rest of the Westside MAX line. In September 2006, the Pacific University Health Professions Campus opened next to the station. Pacific decided to build the campus there due partly to the presence of the station. Pacific opened a second building in August 2010 while the city, in a joint venture with the hospital and school, opened the Hillsboro Intermodal Transit Facility the following month. In March 2011, TriMet received a federal grant to pay for the installation of security cameras at the station. The MAX station was designed by OTAK Inc.
