A Metro Transit light rail train crosses Interstate 35W approaching the Cedar-Riverside Station in Minneapolis. The station serves the Blue and Green Lines and sits adjacent to the Riverside Plaza high-rise complex, a distinctive Brutalist housing development completed in 1973. Cedar-Riverside is a densely populated neighborhood near the University of Minnesota, and the station functions as a key transit link between downtown Minneapolis and the university area.
