It serves the MBTA's Orange Line. It is located at the intersection of Centre Street and Columbus Avenue in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood. HistoryThe station opened in 1987 along with the rest of the southern Orange Line stations. The granite monolith located at the station "Grandmothers" was written by Cambridge writer/artist Christine Palamidessi Moore.[3] The story is a memoir about her ethnic grandmothers and was selected for placement at the subway station by local residents.[4] In 2004, a project took place that provided the station with murals as well as better lighting and new sidewalks to replace broken ones after a spree of violent crimes near the station. The improvements at the station were designed to reduce criminal activity as well as provide a more welcoming atmosphere for transit riders.[5][6] Station layout
