Assembly

Since Assembly wasn't part of the original Haymarket North Extension, I will be brief in my writing about this station.

Assembly station opened on September 2, 2014 to serve the Assembly Row Marketplace in Somerville. This station only has one platform instead of two. If there were a need to serve the third track later on, the Haverhill Line tracks that run next to Assembly would need to be realigned.

The architecture of Assembly can best be described as the 2014 version of the Haymarket North Extension station style, with lots of glass instead of a mass of brutalist concrete.

Next stop: Wellington
