Littleton-Downtown station features a mural titled Seasons of Littleton. The art piece was created by Michelle Lamb and installed in 2000. At 40 feet wide and seven feet tall, the mural had to be installed on eight metal panels which are attached to the western platform wall of the station. The painting was inspired by the Robert McQuarie book Settlement to Centennial as well as photos from the Littleton Historical Museum. The mural depicts 50 historical structures, most of which are located near the station.^[13][14]
