SunRail art at the Meadow Woods station

Orange County’s Meadow Woods community is celebrated in art at the new SunRail station.
Managers at SunRail explained the art this way:

“At Meadow Woods Station, the use of weathering steel, also known as “corten,” creates a natural beauty and rustic charm reminiscent of the area’s agricultural history.


“The rusted steel look also complements furnishings at several other SunRail stations within Orange County. Patterns cut into the corten reflect local plants and landscapes. Landscape architect Jason Holden, PLA, developed the initial concepts in collaboration with Orange County staff, who also selected the final cutout patterns.

Holden, who is with the Longwood-based design firm Dix.Hite + Partners, led the creation of the art concepts at the Poinciana, Meadow Woods and Tupperware SunRail stations.

At the Kissimmee station, there will be rotating art on display as part of the Kissimmee Main Street Sculpture Experience.

The plan is to change the Kissimmee sculpture annually.

SunRail officials said they are working with Kissimmee Main Street program on this.
