Troststraße station

It was built as part of the extension of the U1 from Reumannplatz to Oberlaa station.

[1] In the hall under the Klausenburger Straße exit is the artwork Lines and Double by Michael Kienzer.

The artist responds to the components of the station with a sculpturally composed antithesis; the title is already ambiguous.

Lines point to additional delicate and straight cuts in the wall panels along the escalators, which start at the bottom and almost go up to the entrance.

For the time being, the central sculptural element Double references a third elevator shaft in the basement, newly constructed and not accessible, directly next to the local double-lift.
