History


The station opened in 1987 along with the rest of the southern Orange Line stations. The granite monolith located at the station "Grandmothers" was written by Cambridge writer/artist Christine Palamidessi Moore.[3] The story is a memoir about her ethnic grandmothers and was selected for placement at the subway station by local residents.[4]


In 2004, a project took place that provided the station with murals as well as better lighting and new sidewalks to replace broken ones after a spree of violent crimes near the station. The improvements at the station were designed to reduce criminal activity as well as provide a more welcoming atmosphere for transit riders.[5][6]

Node.js Script on GitHub Pages or Amazon S3

0 I'm wondering if I can run a Node.js script in my Jekyll page from GitHub Pages or Amazon S3? I think it can't run on GitHub Pages since it doesn't support server side code. Not too sure.
