Forest Lane station is a DART light rail station in northeastern Dallas, Texas. The elevated station, which serves the Red Line and Orange Line, is located on Forest Lane, 1⁄3 mile (0.54 km) east of North Central Expressway (US 75) and 1 mile (1.6 km) south of Lyndon B. Johnson Freeway (I-635).[1]
The station serves the Medical City Dallas hospital complex, the Cottonwood Trail, and the Hamilton Park neighborhood.[1] In tribute to the largely African-American population of Hamilton Park, the station features a sculpture dedicated to African-Americans who fought against housing segregation.[3][4]
