Hyattsville Crossing Station - DC Metro
Green Line and Yellow Line - interchange station in Hyattsville, MD.
About Hyattsville Crossing station
Until fairly recently this station carried the name Prince George’s Plaza; it was renamed Hyattsville Crossing to reflect the surrounding community rather than the shopping mall. The Green and Yellow Lines serve it, and the station sits beside East-West Highway with a parking garage of around a thousand spaces. Its main draw for non-commuters is the mall directly nearby, along with the mid-rise apartment and retail development that has grown up around the station over the past two decades. Otherwise it is a straightforward Maryland commuter stop – a place where people from Hyattsville and the surrounding Prince George’s County neighborhoods get on a train toward Washington.
