No, the extension to Northgate will be open in the next 2 years. It's the extension beyond that to Lynnwood that is many years (10) out yet.

Nope. North Link is scheduled to open in 2021. We all know Sound Transit is never on time which is why I said within the next decade.

The Capitol Hill and Husky Stadium stations are the only new stations that are scheduled to open in the next couple years.

They actually completed construction of the tunnels ahead of schedule (and under budget as well). They are now working on the stations. There's talk that they may open this portion of the line as early as September 2015.

Testing on the Northgate extension begins in 2018. They are working six days a week on the tunnels so there is a possibility that they may finish those early as well.
