The PSU Urban Center stations are

PSU South stations. The latter opened on September 2, 2012,[1]
and the change made PSU Urban Center the second stop northbound and the next-to-last stop southbound on the Portland Mall MAX lines.

The stations are built into the sidewalks of 5th and 6th Avenue. There are connections to the

A and B Loop lines, and TriMet and C-Tran
buses.

When opened in August 2009, the stations were located in Fareless Square (within fare zone 1), which was renamed the Free Rail Zone four months later, in January 2010. However, the fare-free zone was eliminated in 2012, when TriMet discontinued all use of fare zones.[1]
