West Library is a station on the Port Authority of Allegheny County's light rail network, located in the Library neighborhood of South Park, Pennsylvania. Primarily a park and ride stop, it features 115 spaces, designed to facilitate the flow of South Park commuters to Downtown Pittsburgh.
History
A stop was established at West Library when the Pittsburgh Railways interurban line from Charleroi to Pittsburgh was opened through South Park on September 12, 1903. Passengers initially changed at Castle Shannon to continue their journey to Downtown via the Pittsburgh and Castle Shannon Railroad. It was cut back to Library in 1953 and was converted from PCC operation to light rail in 1988.
