It includes Overlake Village Station with a pedestrian bridge, leased office building, transit facility, and a four-level parking garage.

The completed bridge spans 240 feet over the highway and connects the Overlake Village light rail station to neighborhoods and businesses west of SR 520. The prefabricated bridge features an art installation of spaced aluminum louvers that create an intriguing visual effect for people crossing it.
