Old GreekTown is a light rail station in Salt Lake City serviced by the Blue Line and the Green Line of the Trax system. It is one of three additional stations that extended Trax from Arena to the Intermodal Hub in 2008. The platform is located in the median of 200 South just west of 500 West. The buildings facing onto this segment of 200 South are mostly old buildings now occupied by retail businesses, though many of them, such as the historic Central Warehouse, were built in a time when the area was nearly surrounded by rail yards and freight spurs. There is also newly-built transit-oriented development on the street. The historic Rio Grande station (now housing a museum) is a half-block south.
