The Hynes Convention Center station dates to 1914, and 
		carries traffic for three of the four Green Line branches.  Its 
		original name was Massachusetts, and later it was called Auditorium. 
		 
		 
		Prominent red and white warnings on the front door warn drivers that 
		they must stop for passengers.  Most surface running is along 
		reserved rights of way, either in the median of area roadways, or further 
		removed from street running, such as on the Riverside (D) branch. 
		 
		As for the advertising, well, whatever.  It helps pay the cost of 
		system operation. |
