Weyerhaeuser Murals
The main feature at the Station are the Weyerhaeuser Murals, painted in the 1940s by Kenneth Callahan. The murals represent a unique and successful partnering of art and industry. Weyerhaeuser Company commissioned Callahan to produce a work of art for the cafeteria for Mill B in Everett. They depict, step by step, the process of turning raw timber into finished lumber. The finished paintings fostered company pride and gave recognition to the loggers and mill workers.
An opportunity to showcase the murals came with the construction of the station. The peaked roof design matched the shape of the two large murals, which are now housed on the fourth floor. Wall niches are floors two and three were created to display the other murals without alterations to the art.
