Two giant murals of psychedelic guitar genius Jimi Hendrix may soon kiss the sky in Seattle’s Central District, a design presentation for the new Judkins Park light rail station shows.

Lsat week, Sound Transit and Hewitt Architecture presented artwork for the station featuring Hendrix to the Seattle Design Commission. Born and raised in the Central District, Hendrix remains an important inspiration for Seattleites. There are at least four memorials and one museum in the Greater Seattle area honoring his electrifying life and music.
